Analysis of fibrous network fluid permeation data using the theory of ultracentrifugation: application to fibrin gels.
A new and alternative method for calculating the strand diameter of fibrous gel networks from fluid permeation data is developed and used to analyze and compare previous Darcy constant measurements of fibrin gels. The calculated diameters from the various sets of experimental data using this method gives for a coarse fibrin clot a strand diameter of approximately 1000 A and for a fine fibrin clot a strand diameter of 170 A.
