Hello students.
00:03
In the question they have given us a statement and we have to identify whether it's true or false.
00:10
Now they have said that heparin is a heteropolisaccharide and it inhibits the coagulation process by inhibiting indirectly the action of thrombin.
00:22
So we have to tell whether this statement is true or not.
00:26
So, heparin is a substance that slows the formation of blood clots.
00:37
Heparin is made in our body in liver, lungs and other tissues in the body.
00:48
And it can also be made inside a laboratory.
00:52
That means, in vitro synthesis of heparin is also possible.
00:57
Now, heparin may be injected into muscles or blood to prevent or break up the blood clots.
01:03
Since the main function of heparin is to slow the formation of blood plot, it can be used for the same purpose by injection if the body is not able to synthesize sufficient heparin.
01:15
Since it's a type of anticoivalent, heparin indirectly inhibits thrombin...
