More Information
Summary:The invention is a method, reagent, test cartridge and device for the determination of fibrinogen in a sample, such as undiluted blood and blood plasma. The method utilizes a reagent comprising thrombin and a thrombin inhibitor that slows the enzymatic conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, and thus slows clotting in samples. This is particularly useful for determining fibrinogen in undiluted blood and blood plasma. Fibrinogen assay reagents comprising at least one thrombin inhibitor and thrombin, and test cartridges containing the reagents for automated analysis of fibrinogen are disclosed, along with automated devices using said reagent and test cartridges for the devices.
