Thrombin activation rate constant: One-stage chromogenic assay for the extrinsic system

Abstract

Some properties of a one-stage, chromogenic clotting assay using tissue thromboplastin as an activator are described. The chromogenic assay uses S-2238 as substrate and estimates thrombin by the rate of absorbance produced. Under assay conditions, it was observed that the log (thrombin or absorbance/min) is linear with time. The linearity appeared to extend from zero thrombin up to maximum thrombin concentration for all concentrations of each …
