A simple device for measuring diameters of fibrinolysis zones on fibrin plates

article
The fibrinolytic activity of a solution is frequently determined by the fibrin plate method, lytic activities of drops being related to the lysed areas in a fibrin layer. A simple device was designed to measure the diameters of fibrinolysis zones. Using the principle of light scattering by the fibrin layer, the authors could clearly distinguish lysis zones from non lysed substrate, even from very transparent fibrin. Application of this principle offers the great advantage that zone diameters can be read off directly, rapidly, and accurately on millimeter graph paper underneath the fibrin plate.
