What does it do?

Thrombin is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the blood coagulation process and is used to stop bleeding. It is primarily utilized to quickly control bleeding during surgical procedures or wound treatment.

Thrombin helps convert fibrinogen into fibrin in the blood, facilitating the formation of clots. This process causes the blood to solidify, blocking the wound area to stop the bleeding.
