Hematin
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Hematin, an iron-containing porphyrin, inhibits the activity of clotting factors and also fibrin clot lysis through the mechanism of binding to and inactivation of hemostatic proteins. Hematin can be used for the research of acute porphyrias and cancer.

Biological Activity
Hematin (0.01 mg/ml) inhibits the clotting of bovine fibrinogen (1.3 to 2.6 mg/ml) by bovine thrombin (0.12 U/ml) and inhibits the hydrolysis of a synthetic substrate by human thrombin[2].
Hematin (0.035 mg/ml) reduces VIII:C activity from 0.88 to 0.40 U/ml[2].
Hematin (0.05 mg/ml) inhibits the activation of VIII:C by thrombin (0.04 U/ml)[2].
Hematin (0.09 mg/ml) inhibits the hydrolysis of a synthetic substrate by plasmin[2].
