PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT
Polyphosphate
Given that commercial sources of long-chain polyphosphate (the type that is best for triggering the contact pathway of blood clotting) have dried up, we decided to make this material available for purchase through the company, KeraFAST. (Full disclosure: my lab receives a portion of the purchase price of polyphosphate from this company.) KeraFAST is currently selling water-soluble long-chain polyphosphate, but they may add more polyphosphate products in the future, such as medium-chain polyphosphate and possibly biotinylated polyphosphate.

RECENT PUBLICATIONS ON TISSUE FACTOR, FACTOR VII, AND TFPI
Papers are culled from NLM MedLine (PubMed). Titles in square brackets indicate that the paper was not published in English. References that lack volume or page numbers are typically electronic pre-publications (E-pubs) ahead of the print publication; if so, the final citation with volume and page numbers may or may not appear in a future issue of Trigger.
