Provided is a hemostasis assay comprising a reaction mixture comprising a blood product to be tested, a trigger molecule for inducing thrombin generation, a thrombin-specific substrate which, upon cleavage by thrombin, produces a measurable thrombin-specific signal, a trigger molecule for inducing plasmin generation, a plasmin-specific substrate which, upon cleavage by plasmin, produces a measurable plasmin-specific signal, a phospholipid-containing surface, and calcium ions. The assay allows determination of the amount of thrombin and the amount of plasmin generated in the reaction mixture in time, starting at t=0, by measuring the thrombin-specific and plasmin-specific signals. |
