Lumbrokinase acts similarly to nattokinase, in that it has been proven to prevent and disperse blood clots. This means it has secondary fibrinolysis actions (blood clots which are dissipated by medication), and it is also a thrombolytic natural medication (cardiovascular treatment), meaning that it helps to thin blood. For information, primary fibrinolysis is your bodies natural means of dispersing coagulation which is weak in some individuals.

The big difference between lumbrokinase and nattokinase is where it comes from. Whereas nattokinase comes from the stinky fermenting process of natto, lumbrokinase comes from earthworms. Or more precisely, from the cells of intestinal tissue and fluid of the earthworm. This is yet another natural resource we have available to us, which blood disorder patients may be able to use instead of dangerous medications.

Lumbrokinase is an ideal drug hypertension to cardiovascular diseases. This essay discussed the purification process of lumbrokinase and decided its molecular weight with earthworms as raw material. After ammonium sulfate precipitation, the crude enzyme was prepared, which was carried through chromatography of lumbrokinase components were obtained, whose protein molecular weight was and specific activity was. These lumbrokinase components showed a direct fibrinolytic and plasminogen activation dual role, and a strong thermal stability and pH stability, which was good to thrombolysis.

Earthworm extract--Lumbrokinase is a new enzyme supplement has been shown to have clinical application value. It’s more and more used in clinical practice, such as in the heart, cerebrovascular, endocrine and respiratory system disease.In addition to clinical medicine, Lumbrokinase is also widely used in file of food, nutraceutical products and cosmetics industries.
