EFFECT OF PAME ON THE COAGULATION TIME OF WHOLE RAT BLOOD

Treatment	Dose (μg/ml)	Coagulation time (s)	Reduction in coagulation time (%)
PAME	10	19.20±1.9*	76.98
	50	25.00±3.4*	70.02
	100	11.20±1.2*	86.57
Normal saline	-	27.40±3.0*	67.15
Control	-	83.40±5.5*	-

n=5;

^*p<0.05 compared to control (One Way ANOVA; LSD post hoc); Reduction (%) in coagulation time was calculated relative to control.
