Abstract

See full text

A method and composition for assaying protein C is described. The method comprises reacting a protein C-containing medium with a protein C-activating activator preparation obtained from venom of the snake Agkistrodon contortrix, or venom of another snake species which undergoes an immunological cross-reaction with the venom of Agkistrodon contortrix, to cause maximum activation of protein C and subsequently determining the quantity of activated protein C, said quantity being proportional to the amount of protein C in said medium. Also disclosed is a method and composition for treating thrombotic disorders with the activator preparation and a method of obtaining the activator preparation by culturing of a cloned microorganism.
