Thromboplastin, also known as tissue factor, is released from damaged tissues or activated platelets during blood vessel injury. It initiates the extrinsic pathway of the coagulation cascade by forming a complex with coagulation factor VII, triggering the cascade that ultimately leads to the formation of a blood clot.
Thromboplastin and PF3 interact to form a complex that activates the enzyme thrombin. This activation cascade is a crucial step in the blood clotting process, leading to the formation of a stable fibrin clot.
In the final step of blood clotting cascade, Thromboplastin activates the prothrombin to Thrombin. Then the activated thrombin helps in the conversion of Fibrionogen into Fibrin (Mesh like fibrils which forms the clot).
Prothrombin is converted to thrombin by the enzyme thromboplastin. Thrombin plays a vital role in the clotting cascade by converting fibrinogen into fibrin, which forms a mesh that helps stop bleeding.

The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is initiated by the exposure of tissue factor (TF), also known as thromboplastin, which is released from damaged tissues. When blood vessels are injured, TF interacts with circulating factor VII, activating it to factor VIIa. This activated complex then catalyzes the conversion of factor X to factor Xa, leading to the formation of thrombin and subsequently fibrin, essential for blood clotting. The extrinsic pathway is crucial for the rapid response to vascular injury.

why there may be large quantities of thromboplastin in blood after surgery.

Thromboplastin -> Prothrombin -> Thrombin -> Fibrinogen -> Fibrin
Thromboplastin, also known as tissue factor, is produced by subendothelial cells in blood vessel walls and by blood cells called monocytes and macrophages. Upon injury to a blood vessel, thromboplastin is exposed and initiates the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation.
A test to check your blood clotting.
True
In the final step of blood clotting cascade, Thromboplastin activates the prothrombin to Thrombin. Then the activated thrombin helps in the conversion of Fibrionogen into Fibrin (Mesh like fibrils which forms the clot).

push to talk In medical settings PTT stands for partial thromboplastin time, and is a measurement of how long it takes the blood to clot.
substance in blood and tissues which, in the presence of ionized calcium, aids in the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin. Extrinsic and intrinsic thromboplastin are formed as the result of the interaction of different clotting factors; the factors that combine to form extrinsic thromboplastin are not all derived from intravascular sources, whereas those that form intrinsic thromboplastin are.activated partial t. time - see http://www.answers.com/topic/activated-4 partial thromboplastin time.extrinsic t. - the prothrombin activator formed as a result of interaction of coagulation factors III, VII, and X which, with factor IV, aids in the formation of thrombin.t. generation time (TGT) - evaluates the first stage in blood coagulation by measuring the efficiency of prothrombinase formation.intrinsic t. - the prothrombin activator formed as a result of interaction of coagulation factors V, VII, IX, X, XI and XII and platelet factor 3 (PF-3), which, with factor IV, aids in the conversion of prothrombin to thrombin.plasma t. antecedent (PTA) - http://www.answers.com/topic/clotting-1 factor XI; deficiency occurs in cattle and dogs, causing mild to severe bleeding tendencies called hemophilia C.plasma t. component (PTC) - http://www.answers.com/topic/clotting-1 factor IX; deficiency causes http://www.answers.com/topic/haemophilia-b.
