Silver ion, a potent antimicrobial and procoagulant, is hypothesized to achieve its haemostatic effect by binding anticoagulant proteins. We performed in vitro studies to gain more insight into its mechanism of action. 10 /spl mu/L of 5% AgNO/sub 3/ was added to 1 mL human plasma (n = 4), forming a precipitate. The precipitate was recovered through centrifugation and iteratively washed with saline. The supernatant(s) and precipitate were mixed with Coomassie blue stain and protein content was measured via spectrophotometric absorbance. An analysis of variance indicated significant (p |
