• dilute whole blood c. retraction test — an indirect measure of fibrinolytic activity. Whole blood is diluted with saline, chilled, then warmed. The time for clot retraction, and later clot lysis, is measured.
• c. formation — a complex interaction, part of the phenomenon of blood clotting. The process is irreversible but the clot may be dissolved naturally.
• c. lysis — the time required for a clot to lyse at 98.6°F (37°C) is a reflection of the plasmin content of the blood. Clot retraction and fibrinogen content of the blood sample are also influential.
• c. retraction — the drawing away of a blood clot from a vessel wall, a function of thrombasthenin, released by blood platelets.
• c. retraction test — a test for platelet numbers and function. Clotted whole blood should retract away from the sides of a glass tube in 1 to 2 hours.
