"Prolonged clotting times (e.g., PT, aPTT) may be identified as unexpected laboratory findings or in the context of an evaluation for a bleeding disorder. Hemostasis/thrombosis laboratories are increasingly employing algorithmic strategies to evaluate prolonged PT and aPTT. This presentation will review basic principles of prolonged clotting time evaluation, discuss the benefits and challenges of pathologist contributions to a prolonged clotting time reflexive panel, and identify result patterns ...

"Per/polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) (also known as “forever chemicals”) are highly persistent, ubiquitous environmental contaminants associated with adverse health effects in humans and animals. PFASs are traditionally monitored via liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). However, the discovery of thousands of PFASs, many of which do not have analytical standards, has made comprehensive characterization impossible using targeted methods. A significant fraction ...
