A method for measurement of fibrin monomer with the use of an immune precipitate of fibrinogen.
A semiquantitative test for measuring fibrin monomer in human plasma is described. The test is based upon the ability of fibrin monomer to form a complex with an immune precipitate of fibrinogen. The test is not sensitive to the plasmin digestion products of fibrinogen and relatively insensitive to plasmin digestion products of fibrin. The test is easily performed on small quantities of plasma in approximately 2 hours.
