Almost precisely a century ago, in the 1920s and 1930s, cattle bled to death in North America after being fed moldy hay containing sweet clover, the yellow Melilotus officinalis, and the white Melilotus albus. The toxic substance in the hay inhibiting blood coagulation was identified and named dicumarol. Further development resulted in warfarin, an oral anticoagulant that has been used for over 70 years and still is, even though newer direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are mainly replacing it. For some patients, warfarin is still the drug of choice. A safe warfarin treatment needs repeated blood sample analysis (PT-INR), and with the new DOACs come new laboratory challenges. The aim of this thesis was to investigate ways laboratory m...
