Quality in molecular biology testing for inherited thrombophilia disorders.

abstract：:Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) are now universally accepted as drugs of choice for postsurgical prophylaxis and treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Currently, these agents are also being developed for the treatment of various cardiovascular conditions. Because of manufacturing differences, each of the LMWH...
