| Profile or Test Panel |
Factor Inhibitor non-Factor VIII Profile
|
| Method | Clottable |
| Test Information | Factor Inhibitors (IX,II,V,VII,X,XI) are very rare. This assay was developed and validated in our laboratory for inhibitors to FVIII. Factor activity will be performed before testing for inhibitors. |
| Additional Test Information | Normal ranges are included on testing report and can be made available upon request. |
| Sample Requirements | Whole Blood: 3.2% sodium citrated (blue top) OR frozen plasma |
| Requested Volume | Two 5 ml 3.2% sodium citrated (blue top) tubes as whole blood OR frozen plasma in 4 X 1mL aliquots in plastic tubes |
| Minimum Volume or Pediatric Volume | Frozen Plasma: at least 0.5ml in 2 plastic tubes. |
| Sample Information | Whole blood is preferred for testing, but if it is not possible to send whole blood tubes TO ARRIVE HERE WITHIN 2 HOURS of collection, then send frozen plasma. To prepare plasma, centrifuge blue top tubes at 1500g for 15 minutes and remove the plasma and centrifuge a second time at 1500g for an additional 15 minutes. Aliquot approximately 1 ml of plasma into 4 plastic tubes, and freeze. |
