What is the working concentration if adding to the blood?
1 answer-
The recommended amount to use is 1:100 (v:v) directly to the whole blood, but one has to take into consideration that this will disrupt the coagulation cascade. If it is a concern, the protease inhibitor cocktail should be added after separation of the blood components. In the serum use at the same concentration as for blood, 1:100 (v:v)
There are articles citing this product when using blood samples. 1-100 was used in both articles:
