Summary

1. Heparin and heparinoids, added to oxalated or citrated plasma produce in this plasma an inactivation of factor V; this inactivation is progressive and directly related to the length of incubation.

The rate of inactivation of factor V is directly proportional to the quantity of anticoagulant added.

2. When quantities with identical anticoagulant activity in the thromboplastin-calcium clotting time are compared, heparin proves to have a stronger effect than heparinoids.

3. The inactvation of factor V in plasma by heparin or heparinoïds is an irreversible process, which cannot be nullified by addition of protamine sulphate.
