Not for human or animal consumption.The technical grade bovine thrombin (90 - 250 U/mg protein) is used by many diagnostic companies worldwide to defibrinate plasma, producing serum matrixes to be used as controls and standards or in polyclonal antibody production. Using bovine thrombin in polyclonal antibody production to defibrinate plasma may increase antibody yields by 15-20% over off-the-clot methods of defibrination. (BioPharm Defibrination Protocol)
