Comparative thermometric coagulation studies of plasmas from normal outbred Swiss Webster mice and persons
American Journal of Veterinary Research
|June 1, 1979
Abstract:
The functional capabilities of a thermometric clot-timer have been demonstrated in a comparative study of human and mouse plasma coagulation. The influence of some variables on coagulation times of mouse and human plasmas were examined in activated partial thromboplastin time, one-stage prothrombin time, and Russell's viper venom time assays. Mouse plasma coagulation times were generally shorter and more reproducible than those of human plasma. Optimal assay conditions are also described.
