In the Thrombodynamics® test kits, protein tissue factor (TF) located on the end face of the activating insert mimics the physiology of a damaged vasculature or inflammation. A basal level of active serine protease Factor VIIa binds this TF to become a fully functional protease that eventually leads to fibrin polymerization and clot formation. The on board dark-field camera images this fibrin polymerization over time allowing for quantification of multiple parameters to blood coagulation using special mathematical techniques.
