1. A method for determining activated clotting factors in plasma and plasma derivatives, using the following processing steps:
- a) incubating a sample amount of plasma or plasma derivative with activated prothrombin complex and procoagulating phospholipid vesicles, the latter containing integrated tissue factor, and the thrombin generation is initiated by adding a suitable amount of Ca2+ ions,b) after a specified incubation time of 5 min and 10 min, the thrombin generation is ended and the amount of generated thrombin is measured using known methods.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for determining activated coagulation factors in plasma or plasma derivatives. A sample of the plasma or plasma derivative to be examined is incubated with an activated prothrombin complex and procoagulative phospholipid vesicles, the latter containing integrated tissue factor, and thrombin formation is initiated by addition of an appropriate amount of Ca ions. After a determined incubation time, thrombin formation is terminated and the amount of thrombin formed is determined by known methods.
