Produktinformation

• Name: Aprotinin
• Synonyme: BPTITrasylol
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Aprotinin is a polypeptide protease inhibitor, which is extracted from bovine lung tissue, possessing antifibrinolytic properties. It works by forming reversible stoichiometric complexes with several serine proteases, including trypsin, chymotrypsin, and plasmin, which are involved in the degradation of fibrin. Through inhibition of these proteases, it reduces the breakdown of fibrin clots, thereby exhibiting a hemostatic effect.Aprotinin is primarily used during surgical procedures to minimize bleeding and the need for blood transfusions. It is particularly valuable in cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, where excessive bleeding can be a significant complication. By stabilizing clots and protecting against excessive fibrinolysis, aprotinin aids in maintaining hemostasis and improving outcomes in complex surgical contexts. Scientists continue to explore its biochemical interactions and therapeutic potential, while safety and efficacy remain key areas of investigation.
