  2. Coagulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation

    Coagulation is highly conserved throughout biology. In all mammals, coagulation involves both cellular components (platelets) and proteinaceous components (coagulation or clotting factors). [2] [3] The pathway in humans has been the most extensively researched and is the best understood. [4]

  3. α-Lactalbumin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α-lactalbumin

    The structure of α-lactalbumin is well known and is composed of 123 amino acids and 4 disulfide bridges. The molecular weight is 14178 Da, and the isoelectric point is between 4.2 and 4.5. α-Lactalbumin has two prominent forms: holo-state and apo-state. The holo-state is the natural form--folded and bound by calcium.

  5. Curdling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curdling

    In curdling, the pH of the milk decreases and becomes more acidic. [1] Independently floating casein molecules attract one another, forming "curdles" that float in a translucent whey . [ 1 ] At warmer temperatures, the clumping reaction occurs more quickly than at colder temperature. [ 1 ]

  6. Curd - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curd

    Although cows milk curd also is produced, Buffalo curd is the preferred variety. In Nepal, curd is produced by souring pasteurized milk with natural micro-flora. The pasteurized milk is added to a container called theki carved out of wood like Daar(Boehmeria Rugulosa). The milk is left for 12–16 hours and the micro-organisms entrapped within ...

  7. Contact activation system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_activation_system

    The two arms of the contact system. PKa's cleavage of HK liberates BK and promotes inflammation. FXIIa's cleavage of FXI initiates coagulation. In the contact activation system or CAS, three proteins in the blood, factor XII (FXII), prekallikrein (PK) and high molecular weight kininogen (HK), bind to a surface and cause blood coagulation and ...

  8. Coagulation activation marker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation_activation_marker

    Coagulation activation markers are biomarkers of net activation of coagulation and fibrinolysis. [1] [2] Examples include prothrombin fragment 1+2 (F1+2), thrombin–antithrombin complex (TAT), fibrinopeptide A (FpA), fibrin monomers (FMs), plasmin-α 2-antiplasmin complex (PAP), activated protein C–protein C inhibitor (APC-PCI), and D-dimer (DD).

  9. Hemostasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemostasis

    Coagulation, the changing of blood from a liquid to a gel which forms the fibrin clots, is essential to hemostasis. Intact blood vessels moderate blood's tendency to form clots . The endothelial cells of intact vessels prevent blood clotting with a heparin-like molecule and thrombomodulin , and prevent platelet aggregation with nitric oxide and ...
