CONT

Au cours de la coagulation du sang, le fibrinogène, protéine soluble dans le plasma, se transforme en un réseau fibreux insoluble de fibrine, le caillot. Celui-ci laisse exsuder le sérum. La transformation du fibrinogène est catalysée par la thrombine et par des facteurs provenant des plaquettes sanguines.
