## Indications for use
IL, Test™ Plasmin Inhibitor is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative determination of plasmin inhibitor in human citrated plasma based on a synthetic chromogenic substrate and plasma inactivation. Plasmin inhibitor, the major fast acting inhibitor of the fibrinolytic system, also known as o,-antiplasmin is an important regulator of the fibrinolytic system. Congenital deficiencies are associated with haemorragic problems. Decreased levels of plasmin inhibitor are observed in liver diseases and DIC. Increased levels have been reported during post-operative episodes.
