title: [Comparative analysis of various methods of determination of fibrinogen in the plasma].
abstract: Fibrinogen was measured in the plasma of normal subjects and patients with various hemostasis disorders by gravimetric methods with thromboplastin coagulation and coagulation with Echis multisquamatus snake venom. Coagulation was assessed using optic Coag-Mate HM (Netherlands) and roll Amelung KC4A (Germany) coagulometers during coagulation with thrombin after Klauss and with the above venom. The results were compared with those of fibrinogen measurements by radial immunodiffusion using Behring antifibrinogen serum. The data of all methods coincided if the initial levels of fibrinogen were normal, whereas in manifest hypo- or hyperfibrinogenemia Klauss' method was the most accurate and informative.
