摘要 |
The present invention is directed to a diagnostic composition for use in the viscoelastic analysis of a test liquid, and to a container (1) comprising same. The composition comprises at least an activator of coagulation, and at least one further constituent selected from CaCl2 and from one or more inhibitors and/or coagulation components, wherein the composition is present in essentially dry form of all constituents and in an amount sufficient for performing one single viscoelastic analysis of a specified blood or plasma sample and wherein the constituents are not present in a substance mixture, but in a spatially separated form. The present invention is further directed to a method of performing a viscoelastic analysis on a test liquid, and to the use of the diagnostic composition in such a method. |
