“The development potential of this new TG approach in hemostasis using the CAT system is very promising,” noted Bob Bachkosky, Director of Marketing for DSI. “The addition of this approach to Stago’s portfolio will allow our customers to measure TG in real-time and in larger, scalable studies.”
What is Thrombin generation (TG)?
TG is a universal test capable of assessing a research subject’s global hemostatic balance in the case of hemorrhage or thrombosis. Few methods previously existed that allowed for TG standardization and calibration. Thrombinoscope introduced a patented, sample-specific calibrator that allows for error correction due to inter-subject plasma composition and color variations, as well as substrate consumption. The CAT method is both specific and sensitive, thus giving increased relevance to hemostatic testing in academic research centers, pharmaceutical companies and contract research organizations.
