Description

Platelet Factor 3 is a phospholipid-protein complex, a critical component of the blood coagulation cascade. Its primary function is to serve as a catalytic surface for the activation of coagulation factors, making it essential for research into hemostasis and thrombosis. This product is vital for pharmaceutical R&D, clinical diagnostics, and biochemical studies focused on coagulation pathways and platelet biology.

Application

• Coagulation Research: Used as a key reagent in studies of the intrinsic and common pathways of blood coagulation.
• Diagnostic Reagent Manufacturing: A critical component in the production of kits for activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and other coagulation assays.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Employed in the research and quality control of anticoagulant and procoagulant therapies.
• Biochemical Standard: Serves as a reference standard for calibrating coagulation testing equipment and validating methods.
• Hematology Studies: Utilized in investigations of platelet function disorders and related bleeding or thrombotic conditions.
• Enzyme Kinetics: Provides the necessary phospholipid surface for studying the kinetics of coagulation factor interactions.
