Roberta Gualtierotti: We Evaluated Different Variables of the Cleaved HK Method in C1-Inhibitor Defects
Roberta Gualtierotti, Associate Professor of Internal Medicine at University of Milan, shared on LinkedIn:
”Conflicting results have been reported in plasma measurement of cleaved high molecular weight kininogen (HK).
In our study, we evaluated different variables of the cleaved HK method in C1-inhibitor defects.
Reliable results were obtained when using protease inhibitors and precast gels.
