Thrombosis and Bleeding Disorders 
Theory and Methods

Thrombosis and Bleeding Disorders compiles the laboratory and research aspects of thrombosis and hemorrhagic disorders in humans. This book presents reviews of the underlying theory, physiology, and biochemistry of hemostasis and thrombosis, including the enzymology of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. This compilation is divided into three levels of specific purposes. First is to provide the most reliable and widely accepted laboratory assays of undisputed diagnostic clinical value, which provides newcomers in the field and experienced workers in the coagulation laboratory with a reference manual to everyday work in a clinically-oriented environment. Second is to review and sketch in outline the theoretical sections focusing on mechanisms. Finally, this text aims to include a systematic review of the most successful purification techniques for individual coagulation factors and moieties of the fibrinolytic enzyme system. This publication is beneficial to medical students and clinicians concerned with human blood coagulation.
