Thermo Scientific™ Thrombo-Wellcotest™ Rapid Latex Agglutination Test

Description

• Carry out semi-quantitative detection of fibrin and fibrinogen degradation products in human serum and urine using Thermo Scientific™ Thrombo-Wellcotest™ Rapid Latex Agglutination Test
• Use this simple, rapid, semi-quantitative test for the presence of fibrin/fibrinogen degredation products (FDP) in human serum and urine samples
• The test is designed as a slide agglutination method in which one drop of sample and one drop of latex suspension are mixed
• A distinct agglutination pattern at the end of the test period indicates the presence of 2μg/ml FDP or more in the sample under test
• By assaying samples at two different dilutions, an approximate FDP value can be determined
• Capable of detecting the presence of all the major breakdown products of fibrin or fibrinogen
• The levels measured by this latex test correlate well with results obtained with a haemagglutination-inhibition immunoassay
