Stabilized thrombin compositions

摘要

Stabilized thrombin compositions, processes for preparing them, and kits comprising them are disclosed. The compositions comprise thrombin, a bacteriostatically effective amount of benzyl alcohol or chlorobutanol, and 0.10% - 5.0% (w/v) sucrose in aqueous solution. The compositions are stable when stored at 2°C - 8°C for four weeks or more.
