THQ extracted from black seeds and pure THQ exhibit a moderate to slight increase in the basal coagulation time of whole blood. Comparison of the effects of THQ extracted from black seeds and pure THQ on the coagulation time of whole blood measured with TEG assay. Either DMSO or 50% Cremaphore EL:50% EtOH were used as blank controls. Two-way ANOVA test without interaction effects showed that the clotting time is significantly different (F = 9.23; p < 0.01) across the THQ concentrations, and that there was no significant difference (F = 0; p = 0.51) between extracted THQ and pure THQ. Post hoc analysis (Tukey) showed that clotting time for 0.03 mg/mL was significantly greater compared to control (p < 0.05) and clotting time was not significantly different for 0.06 mg/mL compared to control. The experiments were performed twice in duplicate. Error bars show the standard deviations of the mean values.
