Handling Advice
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Use of Sodium Azide will inhibit enzyme activity of horseradish peroxidase. Product will become viscous but will not freeze. Avoid storage in frost-free freezers. Allow product to warm to room temperature and gently mix before use. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

Background
The conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin occurs in several steps. First, thrombin cleaves the N-terminus of the fibrinogen alpha and beta chains to fibrinopeptide A and B respectively. The resulting fibrin monomers polymerize end to end to from protofibrils which in turn associate laterally to form fibrin fibers. In a final step, the fibrin fibers associate to form the fibrin gel. Synonyms: Polyclonal Fibrinopeptide A antibody, Anti-Fibrinopeptide A antibody.
