| 21. | Fibrin scaffold has many aspects like being biocompatible, biodegradable and easily processable.
|
| 22. | Additional mechanical properties can be obtained by combining fibrin with other suitable scaffolds.
|
| 23. | These can be linked covalently to fibrin scaffold by reactions catalyzed by transglutaminase.
|
| 24. | Stabilization of the platelet aggregation by fibrin mesh ultimately leads to clot formation.
|
| 25. | Initially, fibrin monomers noncovalently interact with each other.
|
| 26. | Doctors like Ochsner may not have to mix their own fibrin sealants much longer.
|
| 27. | The Red Cross'patented fibrin products are ready to use, Drohan said.
|
| 28. | There are also some anticoagulants that come from animals that work by dissolving fibrin.
|
| 29. | Fibrin forms long strands of tough insoluble protein that are bound to the platelets.
|
| 30. | In a final step, the fibrin fibers associate to form the fibrin gel.
