ZoomProduct Overview
Cephalinex is for use in performing an activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and coagulation factor assays which are based on a modified APTT. The APTT is the most widely used method for monitoring intravenous heparin anticoagulation therapy. It is also a fundamental screening test for deficiencies or abnormalities of the intrinsic coagulation factors VIII, IX, XI, XIII, and factors common to both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways: I (fibrinogen), II, V, X. When used in conjunction with deficient substrate plasma, the APTT provides the basis for the quantification of specific coagulation factors.
