## Indications for use
STA® - Liquid Anti-Xa: The STA® Liquid Anti-Xa kits are intended for use with STA-R® family, STA Compact® and STA Satellite® analyzers, for the quantitative determination of the plasma levels of unfractionated (UFH) and low molecular weight (LMWH) heparins by measuring their anti-Xa activity on antithrombin in a competitive assay using a synthetic chromogenic substrate. STA® - Multi Hep Calibrator: The STA® -Multi Hep Calibrator is a set of calibrator plasmas intended for use with STA-R®, STA Compact® and STA Satellite® analyzers, for the calibration of heparin (UFH and LMWH) activity assay by measuring the anti-xa activity. STA® - Quality HNF/UFH: The STA® -Quality HNF/UFH kit is set of two plasmas intended for the quality control of unfractionated heparin (UFH) activity assay by measuring the anti-Xa activity performed on STA-R®, STA Compact® , and STA Satellite® analyzers. STA® - Quality HBPM/LMWH: STA® - Quality HBPM/LMWH kit is a set of two plasmas intended for the quality control of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) activity assay by measuring the anti-Xa activity performed on STA-R®, STA Compact®, and STA Satellite® analyzers.
