1 When PPS was added to heparin containing plasma it was observed to completely inhibit heparin at low concentrations (2:1 on a weight to weight basis) when measured in the thrombin and prothrombin time but not in the KCCT. Pentosan Sulfuric Polyester coagulation factor II, thrombin Homo sapiens
2 The antiheparin effect of PPS was also observed in a purified system in obviating the heparin potentiation of the rate of inhibition of thrombin by antithrombin III. Pentosan Sulfuric Polyester coagulation factor II, thrombin Homo sapiens
3 Observations showed that at higher concentrations of PPS it acted by directly inhibiting thrombin without the intervention of antithrombin III but also to potentiate the rate of fibrin monomer polymerization. Pentosan Sulfuric Polyester coagulation factor II, thrombin Homo sapiens
