Modified Nijmegen-Bethesda-Assay

Our new CE marked CRYOcheckTM factor VIII inhibitor kit contains the components required for performing a modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay.


Factor VIII inhibitors reduce the effectiveness of hemophilia A therapy. Therefore, it is crucial to use testing systems that can precisely quantify inhibitors such as a modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay (MNBA). The new CE marked CRYOcheckTM factor VIII inhibitor kit contains the components required for performing a modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay.

CRYOcheckTM factor VIII inhibitor kit - key advantages at a glance:

  • Standardized components and a validated procedure for performing a modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay (MNBA) as per the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendation
     
  • Excellent repeatability and reproducibility, for a better lab-to-lab comparability
     
  • Outstanding linearity across a broad reportable range
     
  • Convenient frozen format – ready to use within minutes, no reconstitution errors
     
  • Each kit contains 5 vial sets including positive and negative FVIII inhibitor controls - the amount required to prepare 5 to approx. 25 patient samples.
