It is hypothesized that immobilized heparin ex-contrast to PU, PU-NAH and PU-HAH are strong mediators erts a dual role in blood coagulation. On the one hand, the of factor XIa and factor IXa formation in normal and antiheparinized surface is because of its dense negative charge, thrombin-deficient p

β¦ Synopsis
A number of inhibitors of intrinsic blood coagulation have been examined.
Particular emphasis was placed on heparin, heparin analogues, and hirudin. These inhibitors interfere primarily with two clotting factors in the intrinsic clotting scheme. These include factor IX, and thrombin. Our data suggest that factor IX, is the heparin-and hirudin-sensitive factor in plasma when coagulation is initiated via factors XI1 or XI, and that subsequent clotting factors remain in inactive forms. Studies with heparin and hirudin also clarified the role of thrombin in the interaction of factors IX, and VIII. It was concluded from these experiments that factor VIII readily interacts with factor IX, in the presence of calcium ions and phospholipid independent of thrombin.

## Abstract Oxidized cellulose is an effective haemostat that works naturally to aid in blood coagulation. The mechanism of its action is not very well understood. Little effect on blood coagulation, but a pronounce decrease in platelet count has been reported upon the addition of the oxidized cell
