Summary
Concentrations of antithrombin III have been evaluated in normal and pathological plasmas by a new immunochemical technique, the tanned red cell hemagglutination inhibition immunoassay. This method appears to be simple, sensitive, specific and correlated with the methods that analyze the biological activities of antithrombin III.
