Laboratory detection of antiphospholipid antibodies
Abstract
'Antiphospholipid' (aPL) antibodies are a heterogenous group of autoantibodies that are now considered to be directed mainly to plasma proteins or protein-phospholipid complexes. Standardisation of assays for anticardiolipin (aCL) antibodies and lupus anticoagulants (LA) have been fraught with difficulty despite numerous attempts to perform this by International Standardisation Workshops and Committees.
