-
Hematology reagents intended to perform qualitative and/or quantitative analyses on a sample of body fluids (typically plasma) to determine the antihemophilic factor (coagulation factor VIII), a trace protein involved in the intrinsic pathway of coagulation. Hereditary deficiency of factor VIII is associated with hemophilia A and von Willebrand\'s disease. Deficiency may also be caused by antibodies to factor VIII.
