Usage

General Description

HIRUDIN (55-65) (SULFATED) is a sulfur-containing peptide derived from the salivary glands of leeches, which acts as a potent and specific inhibitor of thrombin, a key enzyme in the blood coagulation cascade. This peptide is commonly used in research and medical applications due to its ability to prevent blood clot formation and its potential therapeutic use in conditions such as deep vein thrombosis and myocardial infarction. The sulfated form of HIRUDIN (55-65) enhances its anticoagulant activity, making it a valuable tool in antithrombotic therapies and a valuable research reagent for studying the mechanisms of blood coagulation.
