blood clotting


Значение термина blood clotting в knolik


blood clotting - blood clotting (blood coagulation)
blood clotting - Conversion of liquidblood to jelly, occurring when blood-vessels are injured. Prevents escape of blood. In vertebrates, a soluble blood-protein (fibrinogen) is converted to tangle of insoluble threads (fibrin) by an enzyme (thrombin). Thrombin is formed from a blood-protein (pro-thrombin) by an activator (thrombokinase) liberated from injured tissues or from blood platelets; removal of free calcium from blood (as by adding oxalate or citrate) inhibits thrombin formation. In some Arthropoda clotting is by projection of thread-like processes from blood-corpuscles.
