- Fibrinogen-coated particles for therapeutic use
-
The invention provides a particle comprising fibrinogen bound on the surface of an albumin matrix, wherein said particle is capable of coaggregation with platelet, and of aggregation in a solution containing soluble fibrinogen at a concentration of soluble fibrinogen not capable by it self of formation of a clot upon activation by thrombin.

- Non-crosslinked protein particles for therapeutic and diagnostic use
-
Albumin particles in the nanometer and micrometer size range in an aqueous suspension are rendered stable against resolubilization without the aid of a crosslinking agent and without denaturation, by the incorporation of a stabilizing agent in the particle composition. Particles which are primarily albumin in the nanometer and micrometer size range in an aqueous suspension are rendered stable against resolublization by the incorporation of a reducing agent, oxidizing agent, hydrogen-accepting molecule, high molecular weight polymer, sulfur-containing ring compound or combinations thereof.

Albumin particles in the nanometer and micrometer size range in an aqueous suspension are rendered stable against resolubilization without the aid of a crosslinking agent and without denaturation, by the incorporation of hemoglobin in the particle composition. Particles which are primarily hemoglobin in the nanometer and micrometer size range in an aqueous suspension are rendered stable against aggregation by the incorporation of either albumin, surface active agents or gelatin.
