Application

Ecarin from Echis carinatus venom is the primary reagent in the ecarin clotting time (ECT) test, which is used to monitor anticoagulation and thrombin inhibition. It has been used in studies to test the effectiveness of medications for the treatment of venous and arterial thromboembolism.
Ecarin activity is the principal behind the Ecarin Clotting Time (ECT) assay, which is used to assess antithrombotic effect and thrombin inhibition.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Prothrombin activator

Unit Definition

One unit will activate prothrombin to produce one unit of amidolytic activity at pH 8.4 at 37 °C. One amidolytic unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of N-p-tosyl-Gly-Pro-Arg-p-nitroanilide per min at pH 8.4 at 37 °C.

Rivaroxaban and dabigatran are new oral anticoagulants that specifically inhibit factor Xa and thrombin, respectively. Clinical studies on the prevention and treatment of venous and arterial thromboembolism show promising results. A major disadvantage of these anticoagulants is the absence of

Dabigatran-etexilate (DE) recently has been approved for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. However, lack of effective antagonists represents a major concern in the event of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The aims of the present study were to establish a murine model

Analytical biochemistry, 608, 113907-113907 (2020-08-20)
Snake venom prothrombin activators such as Ecarin are readily assayed by continuous spectrophotometric monitoring of p-nitroaniline production in a one step assay containing prothrombin and a p-nitroanilide peptide substrate for thrombin. The coupled reactions result in accelerating p-nitroaniline (pNA) production

Age-related changes in the hemostatic system result in variation in response to anticoagulants and coagulation assays over childhood. This study used in vitro methods to determine i) optimum coagulation assays for dabigatran in children and ii) anticoagulant effect of dabigatran
