Summary:The activated coagulation time test provided a rapid yet accurate measurement of the intrinsic clotting system in rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta) whole blood. Other advantages of this test included reproducibility, no requirement for control samples, low cost and commercial availability. The mean activated coagulation time value for 60 normal rhesus monkeys was 96 seconds with a range of 77 to 125 seconds. There were no significant differences due to sex, venipuncture site and time of blood collection.
