What does it do?

Human fibrinogen is an essential protein for blood coagulation in the bloodstream that helps to clot blood when bleeding occurs. It is used in pharmaceuticals for hemostatic support during bleeding or after surgery.

During bleeding, human fibrinogen is converted into fibrin by thrombin enzyme, forming a mesh within the blood. This mesh helps to clot the blood along with platelets, aiding in hemostasis by sealing the bleeding site.
