ELISA was performed to determine serum levels of cotinine (Calbiotech), plasma and RV levels of brain or B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP; Raybiotech, Peachtree Corners, GA) per manufacturers’ instructions.
Cotinine
Manufactured by Calbiotech
Sourced in France
Cotinine is a laboratory equipment product used to detect and measure the levels of cotinine, a metabolite of nicotine, in biological samples. Cotinine is a widely accepted biomarker for tobacco smoke exposure. The product provides a reliable and accurate method for quantifying cotinine levels, which can be useful in various research and clinical applications.

Fasting blood samples were drawn from antecubital vein using minimal stasis. Blood samples were drawn at the time of enrolment before starting therapy. Patients who received prophylactic LMWH were drawn at least within 12 h post injection. Complete blood count, glucose, and creatinine were assayed by routine laboratory techniques. Fibrinogen was determined using the Clauss method. Plasma D-dimer was measured with the Innovance D-dimer assay (Siemens, Marburg, Germany). Immunoenzymatic assays were used to determine the TF-bearing MP (MP-TF) activity (Hyphen BioMed, Neuville sur Oise, France) and cotinine levels (Calbiotech, El Cajon, CA, USA).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
