Using the chromogenic methodology, a coagulation protein's activity level is related to:
A) An increase in turbidity
B) The observed color change
C) The time needed to convert fibrinogen to fibrin
D) A decreased viscosity as plasmin digests fibrin

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The chromogenic methodology involves the use of chromogenic substrates that produce a color change upon cleavage by the coagulation protein. The level of activity of the protein is then measured by the intensity of the observed color change.
