LA-Sensitive and LA-Resistant for lupus anticoagulant testing
Available in Bulk-Powders, please enquire for more information and quote
The dilute Russells Viper venom clotting test using a low phospholipid concentration is a common screening test for LA. The LA sensitive (dRVT-LS) reagent contains a low phospholipid concentration whereas the LA resistant (dRVT-LR) reagent contains a higher phospholipid concentration. The LS/LR shows no false positive results on samples containing DOACs or plasma from warfarin patients. Our dRVT reagents are highly stable and have shown reliable results for LA testing in comparison to other suppliers (Comparative data from external evaluations are available on request).
We guarantee a competitive price for our reagents.
