BACKGROUND Therapeutic success of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) may vary based on the composition and preparation method. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cellular components of platelet concentrates produced by a leucocyte-rich (LR-PRP) and a leucocyte-poor PRP systems (LP-PRP). METHODS Parameters evaluated included platelet recovery, platelet concentration, red blood cell (RBC) ...

background: among diverse protein purification systems, affinity chromatography is the most attractive one in the purification process of coagulation factors. coagulation factor vii is a plasma serine protease that has a significant role in natural human hemostasis and its recombinant form such as aryoseventm, has been applied in clinical treatment of bleeding disorders. immunoaffinity chromato...

discussions as one ich patient whose pt and aptt suggest a coagulation disorder secondary to vitamin k deficiency or coagulation factor deficiency, unresponsiveness to vitamin k therapy should be useful to take fx deficiency into consideration. background inborn factor x deficiency (fxd) is a very rare (1: 500,000) hereditary coagulation disorder, which is characterized by clinical manifestatio...

BACKGROUND The rapid reversal of the effects of vitamin K antagonists is often required in cases of emergency surgery and life-threatening bleeding, or during bleeding associated with high morbidity and mortality such as intracranial haemorrhage. Increasingly, four-factor prothrombin complex concentrates (PCCs) containing high and well-balanced concentrations of vitamin K-dependent coagulation ...

Recombinant factor VIII and factor IX concentrates, human-plasma–derived albumin, and samples from previously untreated patients with hemophilia were examined for the presence of TT virus (TTV) by using polymerase chain reaction testing. Blood samples from the patients were obtained prospectively before and every 3 to 6 months after therapy was begun. TTV was detected in 23.5% of the recombinan...

Factor V is an essential clotting factor that plays a key role in the blood coagulation cascade on account of its procoagulant and anticoagulant activity. Eighty percent circulating produced liver remaining 20% originates α-granules platelets. In humans, gene about 80 kb size; it located chromosome 1q24.2, cDNA 6914 bp length. Furthermore, nearly 190 mutations have been reported gene. deficienc...

Experimental evidence has been obtained that cryoprecipitation concentrates anti-A in mixtures of group O and group A plasma by a mechanism that does not operate in group O plasma alone. It has been concluded that the anti-A/A polysaccharide complex is less soluble during cryoprecipitation than anti-A immunoglobulin, and this complex dissociates to give free anti-A when the cryoprecipitate is r...

Clotting factor concentrates (CFCs) underwent tremendous modifications during the last forty years. Plasma-derived concentrates made the replacement therapy feasible not only in the hospital but also at patients' home by on-demand or prophylactic regimen. Virucidal methods, implemented soon after hepatitis and AIDS outbreak, and purification by Mabs made the plasma-derived concentrates safer an...
