The Identification and Synthesis of Activated Plasma Thromboplastin Component (ptc').

Starch Block Electrophoresis of Plasma and Serum Clotting Factors. Separation of Activated Ptc (ptc).

P APER STRIP and paper curtain electrophoretic technics have been widely used to separate or identify clotting factors.19 Recently, starch gel electrophoresis has also been employed.9’10 We report herein the results of starch block electrophoresis using starch thoroughly washed with ethylenediaminetetraacetate ( EDTA). We have characterized the migration pattern of the following plasma clotting...

Plasma thromboplastin component (PTC), a hitherto unrecognized blood coagulation factor; case report of PTC deficiency.

Efficacy of Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Activated By Thromboplastin-D on the Repair and Regeneration of Wounds in Dogs

Objective- To evaluate the effects of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on wound healing in dogs. Design- Experimental in-vivo study. Animals- 5 mix-breed male adult dogs. Procedures- Under general anesthesia, six 2 × 2-cm, full-thickness skin wounds were created on the back of dogs symmetrically. In each dog, three right side wounds were treated topically with 1.5 ml PRP jelly, whereas lef...

Mild PTC (plasma thromboplastin component) deficiency occurring in two brothers.

The Use of a Stabilized Partial Thromboplastin Reagent in the Partial Thromboplastin Test.

1THE PARTIAL THROMBOPLASTIN TIME test was originally developed by Langdell et al. (1) as a method of following the therapy of hemophulic patients. These investigators found this test to be extremely sensitive to changes in Factor VIII brought about by whole blood or plasma transfusions. Extensive studies of the partial thromboplastin time test (PTT) by Rodman et il. (2) have shown that this tes...
