In dogs, the lymph coagulation occurs much more slowly than that of the blood. This is due to low concentration of the coagulation factors (I, II, V, VII, VIII, X, XI+XII) and to an increased level of heparin in the lymph. The fibrinolytic activity of lymph is somewhat higher than that of the blood which may be due to the low concentration of antiplasmines. The lymphocytes (thymocytes) prove to be able to substitute the blood platelets during coagulation of blood and lymph.
