Canine reference intervals for coagulation markers using the STA Satellite and the STA-R Evolution analyzers [PDF]
The aim of the current study was to determine canine reference intervals for prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen, and antithrombin (AT) according to international recommendations. The STA Satellite coefficients

The ISFET based heparin sensor with a monolayer of protamine as affinity ligand [PDF]
The ion-step measuring method was used to determine absolute heparin concentrations in PBS and blood plasma with a Ta2O5 ISFET on to which a monolayer of protamine had been immobilized. Heparin is a highly negatively charged polysaccharide, which is used

How we treat bleeding associated with direct oral anticoagulants [PDF]
Direct oral anticoagulants are at least as effective as vitamin K antagonists for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolism. Unfortunately, differently from vitamin K antagonists, they have the great drawback of lacking specific antidotes in the ...

Influence of hydroxyethyl starch (6% HES 130/0.4) administration on hematology and clinical chemistry parameters [PDF]
Background: The chemical inertness of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) might cause interferences of the colloid with a variety of laboratory tests. We aimed to evaluate potential influences of HES 130/0.4, the newest HES type, on several common hematology and ...
