Calibrated Automated Thrombogram (CAT)
By using a "slow" fluorogenic thrombin substrate and continuous comparison to a simultaneously run calibrator, thrombin generation can be monitored automatically, on line, in clotting PPP or PRP at a throughput of up to 100 samples per hour.
It is a room under controlled atmosphere (5% CO2, 95% N2) gathering in the same anaerobic space, an ergonomic work area and an incubator. The cell cultures are thus incubated under hypoxic conditions (O 2 of between 1 and 3%).
