title: Enzyme enhancement for the measurement of protein C.
abstract: Protein C measurement is now a necessary work-up of a patient with thrombosis. We described an enzyme enhancement of Laurell's immunoelectrophoresis for assay of protein C antigen. With this modification, the rockets are well defined and easily visualized and the sensitivity of the assay increased (2.5%). Samples with low protein C antigen are easily assayed.
