Q

Anticoagulant?

A

substance that helps prevent blood clots from forming. It works by inhibiting certain clotting factors in the blood, reducing the ability of the blood to clot.

Q

Serum?

A

It is essentially blood plasma without the clotting proteins. Blood serum contains water, electrolytes, antibodies, hormones, and other proteins, but it does not include blood cells or clotting factors.
