Von Willebrand Disease (VWD)
Part 4: VWF Multimer Analysis
The Role of von Willebrand Factor Multimer Analysis in Diagnosis
Autoradiography and Infrared Method Comparison
July 2011
Shown on the next side are selected plasma von Willebrand factor multimer images from patients with von Willebrand disease. On the left are examples of images generated by our infrared method and on the right are images of the same plasma samples generated by the auto-radiographic method. The infra red image method provides superior resolution.
