Viscosimetric effect of fibrinogen.

چکیده
AIMS To investigate the correlation between fibrinogen concentration and plasma and serum viscosity. METHODS Measurements of paired plasma viscosity and serum viscosity were compared in 45 subjects with a considerable range of fibrinogen concentrations and serum viscosity. RESULTS Plasma and serum viscosity correlated well with plasma fibrinogen in cases of normal serum viscosity, but not in cases of myeloma or macroglobulinaemia. When an exponential correlation between plasma and serum viscosity was used, fibrinogen showed a good correlation in both normal and abnormal conditions. CONCLUSIONS There is an exponential correlation between plasma and serum viscosity which depends on the plasma fibrinogen concentration. This is in accordance with Arrhenius's formula for solutions of varying concentrations.

متن کاملFactors affecting the assay of hyaluronidase.
A number of different types of assay methods have been developed for the determination of hyaluronidase activity in vitro. These include the mucin clot test (1, 2), the viscosimetric assay (3-12), the turbidimetric assay (7, 13-17), and the reductimetric assay (18). Of these, the turbidimetric and viscosimetric assays have been used most widely. In the work reported here a study has been made o...
