A Radial Immunodiffusion Method for the Measurement of Rat Fibrinogen and Fibrin Degradation Products1

The present report describes a technique for the production of monospecific rabbit antiserum to rat fibrinogen and its use in a quantitative radial immunodiffusion assay for measurement of rat fibrinogen and fibrin degradation products. It is a suitable technique for measurement of these parameters in small samples which can be repeatedly obtained from animals the size of rats.
