Fibrin network variability

Fibrin is a protein network present in the clot. It can be characterized by its structure, fibers dimensions, ramification degree, porosity, viscoelasticity and deformability. All these properties depend on temperature, ions concentrations and on other plasmatic substances, mainly fibrinogen, thromb...
