An extracellular fibrinolytic-enzyme-producing bacterium was isolated from Doen-Jang, a Korean traditional fermented flood, and identified as Bacillus sp. DJ based on its morphology and cellular fatty acid composition. The total extracellular fibrinase (EF) from Bacillus sp. DJ was analyzed using three fibrin zymographic techniques, SDS-fibrin zymography (SDS-FZ), isoelectrofocucing-fibrin zymographs(IEF-FZ), and a two-dimensional SDS-fibrin zymographic analysis (2D SDS-FZ). As a result, the EP map of Bacillus sp. DJ was established. The results suggest that the 2D SDS-FZ method will be a useful tool for the proteomic approach for many other bacterial pretenses.

Mume Fructus extract is used in folk medicine in Eastern Asian countries including Korea. However, its therapeutic effect on thrombosis is not known. Mume Fructus methanol extract (ME) dose-dependently inhibited ADP-induced platelet aggregation and also exhibited about 130% fibrinolytic activity compared to the natto. Oral administration of ME to mice significantly extended tail-bleeding time. ME prolonged both aPTT and PT in human citrated plasma also. These results suggest that the methanol extract from Mume Fructus have antithrombosis activity.

In this study, alcohol fermentation condition for production of plum wine was investigated and further, sensory evaluation and nutraceutical properties of the plum wine and liquors were also determined. Ethanol was produced maximally when 5% Saccharomyces cerevisiae was added in red plum juices and fermented at $25^{\circ}C$ for 5 days. Among the red plum wine and various kinds of plum liquors, red plum wine showed the best acceptability and its ACE inhibitory activity, fibrinolytic activity and antioxidant activity were also excellent.

Dry socket, also termed fibrinolytic osteitis or alveolar osteitis, is a complication of tooth exodontia. A dry socket lesion is a post-extraction socket that exhibits exposed bone that is not covered by a blood clot or healing epithelium and exists inside or around the perimeter of the socket or alveolus for days after the extraction procedure. This article describes dry socket lesions; reviews the basic clinical techniques of treating different manifestations of dry socket lesions; and shows how microscope level loupe magnification of $6{\times}$ to $8{\times}$ or greater, combined with co-axial illumination or a dental operating microscope, facilitate more precise treatment of dry socket lesions. The author examines the scientific validity of the proposed causes of dry socket lesions (such as bacteria, inflammation, fibrinolysis, or traumatic extractions) and the scientific validity of different terminologies used to describe dry socket lesions. This article also presents an alternative model of what causes dry socket lesions, based on evidence from dental literature. Although the clinical techniques for treating dry socket lesions seem empirically correct, more evidence is required to determine the causes of dry socket lesions.

All newborn infants with clinically significant bleeding should be evaluated for a hemostatic deficit. Medical history should include the following data: familial bleeding disorders, maternal illness and medication, age of bleeding onset, and prophylactic administration of vitamin K. The first essential step for evaluating bleeding neonates is determining whether the baby is sick or well. The physician should also evaluate the extent of the bleeding, features of bleeding lesions, and other abnormal findings from the physical examination. Skeletal anomalies may provide diagnostic clues. Depending on the clinical features and results of screening tests, other tests including coagulation factors may be useful for determining the diagnosis. All laboratory results must be considered in the context of age-related reference values. The platelet function analyzer provides a promising alternative to bleeding time. Fibrin degradation products and D-dimers are used for screening and specially testing fibrinolytic activity, respectively. The Apt test may help to rule out factors derived from maternal blood. Radiologic imaging studies are important because asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhages are common in neonates.

An anticoagulant protein was purified from the edible portion of a blood ark shell, Scapharca broughtonii, by ammonium sulfate precipitation and column chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50, Sephadex G-75, DEAE-Sephacel, and Biogel P-l00. In vitro assays with human plasma, the anticoagulant from 'S. broughtonii, prolonged the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and inhibited the factor LX in the intrinsic pathway of the blood coagulation cascade. But, the fibrin plate assay did not show that the anticoagulant is a fibrinolytic protease. The molecular mass of the purified S. broughtonii anticoagulant was measured to be about 26.0kDa by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-75 column and SDS-PAGE under denaturing conditions. The optimum activity in the APTT assay was exhibited at pH 7.0-7.5 and $40-45^{\circ}C$ in the presence of $Ca^{2+}$.

The plasmin activity of euglobulin fraction treated with earthworm extract(EWE) increased concentration dependently when EWE(0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg each) were added to normal plasma. It was shown that lumbrokinase in EWE may be moved to euglobulin fraction and activated plasminogen. Also anticoagulation and fibbrinolysis were studied when EWE(7.5, 30 and 120 mg/kg) were added to rat model. Prothrombin time (PT) were 19.7${\pm}$ 3.8, 22.5${\pm}$ 2.5 and 24.5${\pm}$ 5.0sec. activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were 25.7${\pm}$ 5.9, 28.7${\pm}$ 5.2 and 36.5${\pm}$ 19.1 sec. After 15 days, the production of D-dimer were 242.3${\pm}$ 47.4, 250.0${\pm}$ 11.9 and 205.8${\pm}$ 12.2mg/ml plasma, respectively. These data showed that EWE acted on the coagulation factor of intrinsic and extrinsic system.

Alcohol fermentation conditions for the production of plum wine were investigated and further, sensory evaluation and physiological functionalities of the plum wines were also determined and compared with those of plum liquors made by soaking plums in a mixture of commercial soju and 10% sugar for 15, 30, 60 and 120 days. Ethanol was produced maximally when 5% Saccharomyces cerevisiae was added to red plum juices and fermented at 25$^{\circ}C$ for 5 days. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory activity and fibrinolytic activity of the red plum wine were better than those of the plum liquors. However, the antioxidant activity, the SOD-like activity and the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of the plum liquors were better than those of the red plum wine. On comparing the red plum wine and the various kinds of plum liquors, the red plum wine was shown to be more acceptable by sensory evaluation.
