Popis: Plasma transglutaminase FXIII provides mechanical and biochemical stability to blood clots. Congenital or acquired deficiency may be associated with bleeding diathesis and requires therefore careful monitoring. The precise automated measurement of a large number of plasma samples can provide new insights regarding the clinical relevance of certain FXIII levels. There is still the unmet diagnostic need for a reliable high-throughput method. Here we report the development and feasibility study of a promising prototype, adapting the precise FXIIIa isopeptidase assay principle on the optimized automated Ceveron s100 platform.
