What Is Plasmin?
Plasmin is an enzyme produced in the body for the primary purpose of breaking down fibrin, a key component in blood clots. This enzyme acts as an anticoagulant and clot disperser inside the body. It is part of a large family of proteins and enzymes that respond to injuries in a cascading series of reactions that begins when an injury occurs and ends when the healing process is complete. Numerous labs manufacture these compounds for use in scientific research, including components from both human and animal sources.
