Purification

≥95% by SDS-PAGE. Human thrombin is prepared from purified prothrombin using a modification of the Lundblad procedure (1) as described by Nesheim et al. (2). Purity is determined by SDS-PAGE analysis and activity is measured in a thrombin specific clotting assay, and compared to standardized NIH thrombin.
