"THROMBOCYTOPENIC SERUM": AN ARTIFICIAL FACTOR VIII-DEFICIENT REAGENT
Thrombocytopenic serum is a simple reagent derived from platelet-poor plasma. The high levels of factor V and ;zero' levels of factor VIII in this reagent make it a reliable alternative to haemophilia A plasma in the qualitative and quantitative assessment of factor VIII in the thromboplastin generation test.
