Descripción

General description

Lyophilized powder containing sucrose, sodium chloride and Tris.

Thrombin is the final coagulation protease in regard to hemostasis, promoting both procoagulant and anticoagulant effects. [1]

Application

Thrombin is used for site specific cleavage of recombinant fusion proteins containing an accessible thrombin recognition site for removal of affinity tags. Thrombin has been used in a study to assess an innovative flow cytometric approach for small-size platelet microparticles. [2]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Serín proteasa que hidroliza selectivamente los enlaces Arg-Gly en el fibrinógeno para formar fibrina y fibrinopéptidos A y B.

Analysis Note

The NIH assay procedure uses 0.2 ml diluted plasma (1:1 with saline) as a substrate and 0.1ml of thrombin sample (stabilized in a 1% buffered albumin solution) based on a modification of the method of Biggs. Only clotting times in the range of 15-25 seconds are used for determining thrombin concentrations.

Other Notes

Activity is expressed in NIH units obtained by direct comparison to a NIH Thrombin Reference Standard
