Human TAT Complexes ELISA Kit 5 Kit (96 Wells)

Thrombin-antithrombin (TAT) complexes formed following the neutralization of thrombin by antithrombin III (ATIII) have been used as a surrogate marker for thrombin generation (1). High plasma levels of TAT complexes have been suggested to alter hemostatic activation in argentine hemorrhagic fever (2), chronic dialysis patients (3), and toxemia of pregnancy (4). Whereas low plasma levels of TAT complexes are found in type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes (5), neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (6), and primary untreated cancer (7). TAT complexes are a useful marker to predict morphological changes in chronic aortic dissection (8).
