Abstract
the basic prerequisite of Factor VIII clotting assay (FVIII:C) by One-Stage Method is that all other than FVIII clotting factors are present in constant concentration in each dilution of both standard reference and patient's plasma curves. On the contrary, the plasma content of each dilution is decreasing as the dilution factor increases. to keep exactly constant the plasma content in each mixture, we performed all dilutions of both standard reference and patient's plasma with FVIII deficient plasma and further with a fixed amount of buffer (method B). To show the discrepancies between this method and regular method A, using buffer to make dilutions, a comparative study was conducted on FVIII: C assay on samples at known FVIII concentration and in patients' plasma. Imidazole or Owren's buffers and five different aPTT reagents were employed, both in method A and B. a discrepancy between FVIII: C assays obtained by method A and B was observed, mainly when Pathrontin SL and Imidazole buffer were used. The assays derived from method B always better fit with the expected, calculated, values of FVIII:C concentrations. Furthermore, FVIII: C was assayed in 60 patients: the outcome of method A was always higher than values of method B. ...Continue Reading
