How do you assay thrombin potency?

You can assay thrombin potency by measuring its ability to convert fibrinogen to fibrin, typically using a chromogenic or clot-based assay. The results are compared to a standard curve to determine the potency of the thrombin sample.


What is the function of the prothrombine?

In the blood coagulation pathway, thrombin acts to convert factor XI to XIa, VIII to VIIIa, V to Va, and fibrinogen to fibrin.


Why does the iron present in the blood does not rust?

A substance or complex of substances called prothrombin activator is formed in response to rupture of vessels or damage to the blood itself. The detailed mechanism by which prothrombin activator is formed are still incompletely understood, however, both involves a series of plasma proteins, especially beta- globulins which along with other blood clotting factors like factor IV (calcium)enter into clotting process. 2.Prothrombin activator catalyzes the conversion of prothrombin into thrombin in the presence of calcium. 3.The thrombin acts as an enzyme to convert fibrinogen into fibrin threads that enmesh platelets, blood cells and plasma to form a hard blood clot. Citrates and oxalates which are commonly used as anticoagulants are effective because they remove calcium from the blood by formation of insoluble citrate or oxalate salts of calcium. If calcium is added in excess the clotting power of blood is restored. In formation of oxy-hemoglobin, oxygen does not combine with two positive valences of the ferrous iron in the hemoglobin molecule. Instead, it binds loosely with one of the six "coordination" valences of the iron atom. This is an extremely loose bond so that combination is reversible. Furthermore, the oxygen does not become ionic oxygen but is carried as molecular oxygen to the tissue where it is released into the tissue fluids in the form of dissolved molecular oxygen rather than ionic oxygen. This explains why blood does not rust despite having the all necessary substrates for the formation of the rust


Did pepsin act in absence of HCL?

Pepsin is inactive in the absence of HCl because the acidic environment is necessary to convert pepsinogen into its active form, pepsin. HCl is needed to denature proteins and activate pepsin through a process called autocatalysis.
