A rapid turbidimetric determination of fibrinogen degradation products (FDP)

H W Verbruggen et al. Thromb Haemost. .

Abstract

A rapid and simple turbidimetric determination of fibrinogen degradation products is described. This method is based on the increase of the turbidity due to the formation of precipitating antigen-antibody complexes after addition of rabbit antihuman fibrinogen antiserum to human serum. The increase in turbidity correlates very well with results obtained with the haemagglutination inhibition technique and has the advantage of a more objective quantitation. The reproducibility appears to be quite good. The turbidimetric method is independent of the colour of serum samples.
