Clot lysis by streptokinase, water, various organic extracts and their different fractions. Effects of drugs on dissolution of clots prepared from blood of normal individuals. Maximum clot lysis (80.77 ± 1.12%) was observed in clot treated with streptokinase (SK). Among herbal drugs chloroform fractions of T. orientalis, B. monnieri, C. frutescens, B. oleracea and U. sinuata showed highest significant (P < 0.05 and P < 0.001) clot lysis activity viz., 46.44 ± 2.44%, 48.39 ± 10.12%, 36.87 ± 1.27%, 30.24 ± 0.95% and 47.89 ± 6.83% respectively. Sterile distilled water (as a negative control) showed 5.69 ± 3.09% clot lysis. Values are mean ± SD, (n = 5); *P < 0.05, **P < 0.001, Dunnet test as compared to control (positive and negative). Data were processed by paired t-test analysis by using SPSS for windows, version 18.0.
