Abstract
Ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid reversibly inhibits the thrombin-fibrinogen reaction by means of a time-dependent diminution in fibrinogen reactivity. This alteration of fibrinogen is due to some property of the EDTA molecule in an unchelated form, and is not due to the removal of trace metal ions. Possible explanations for this phenomenon are discussed.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
