The VALIDATE® D-Dimer kit, in a human plasma matrix, evaluates D-Dimer. Each VALIDATE® D-Dimer kit, prepared using the CLSI EP06-A “equal delta” sample preparation, offers five distinct concentrations covering the reportable range for Siemens Sysmex® CS-2500 System analyzers. Each kit is liquid and ready-to-use. Simply dispense the product from each dropper bottle, directly into five sample cups, and run in replicates.
