Fibrin network structure and clot mechanical properties are altered by incorporation of erythrocytes

Although many in vitro fibrin studies are performed with plasma, in vivo clots and thrombi contain erythrocytes, or red blood cells (RBCs). To determine the effects of RBCs on fibrin clot structure and mechanical properties, we compared plasma clots without RBCs to those prepared with low (2 vol%),...
