Fig. 1. Results for aPTT, PT, and TT measurements for the solutions of three anticoagulants: cysteine-rich anticoagulant (CRA) derived from the medicinal leech, hirudin (Hir), and heparin (Hep). Concentrations of CRA and Hir are measured in µM of protein in the test solution; the total amount of IU per reaction is provided for Hep. The mean clot formation time for the control sample (10 mМ TrisCl, pH = 7.5) is shown as the dashed line. The data are provided as the mean values of clot formation time and standard deviations. Four independent measurements per point were performed
Table. Effects of various solutions on the aPTT, TT, and PT determination
Note: mean clot formation time in seconds ± standard deviation is provided; 1 — phosphate buffer solution (20 mМ sodium phosphate, 8 g/L sodium chloride, pH = 7.4); 2 — no clot was formed, no value is available.
