Abstract
THROMBIN1 and fibrinogen2 have been shown to exhibit species specificity. Recently attention has been directed to the possible removal of intravascular clots by fibrinolytic agents. Since high concentration of thrombin produces lysis of fibrin3, it was of interest to investigate the effect of homologous and heterologous reagents.
