Summary. A precise and sensitive chromogenic assay for the measurement of very low levels of factor VIII (FVIII) in plasma has been developed. The assay is based on modifications of a commercially available chromogenic assay. The... more
Currently, molecular diagnosis of haemophilia A and B (HA and HB) highlights the excess risk-inhibitor development associated with specific mutations, and enables carrier testing of female relatives and prenatal or preimplantation genetic... more
Hemophilia A is a congenital, recessive, X-linked bleeding disorder that is managed with infusions of plasma-derived or recombinant factor (F) VIII. The primary considerations in FVIII replacement therapy today are the: 1) immunogenicity... more
