Lupus Anticoagulant Profile (Esoterix)
Use
This test panel provides a comprehensive evaluation for lupus anticoagulant and related antiphospholipid antibodies. It includes measurements of coagulation parameters (aPTT, INR, prothrombin time, thrombin time, dRVVT with hexagonal phospholipid neutralization and platelet neutralization) along with ELISA-based detection of anticardiolipin antibodies (IgG, IgM) and β2‑glycoprotein I antibodies (IgA, IgG, IgM), enabling interpretation of lupus anticoagulant status and supporting diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome.
