The partial thromboplastin (cephalin) time test [PDF]
Nine partial thromboplastin (cephalin) reagents have been compared in a parallel investigation of groups of patients on `long-term' anticoagulants, a group with moderate haemophilia, and patients on heparin infusion. Results with the seven commercial reagents and a human cephalin extract have been correlated with those of a specially ...

A viable mouse model of factor X deficiency provides evidence for maternal transfer of factor X. [PDF]
BackgroundActivated factor X (FXa) is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease that plays a pivotal role in blood coagulation by converting prothrombin to thrombin. There are no reports of humans with complete deficiency of FX, and knockout of murine F10 is
