Methods and disposable device are disclosed for determining the clotting time of a blood plasma sample. The device has a sample region (59) and an activating region (62) for activating the clotting cascade of the plasma sample. The clotting time is determined by the migration distance of the fluid or clot distance from the sample region (59). The activation region (62) is impregnated with thromplastin to activate the clotting factors and a clotting region (64) is impregnated with excess fibrinogen for enhancing clot formation. Other reagents may also be provided as mobile or immobile reagents. |
