Fibrin monomers are
monomers of
fibrin which are
formed by the
cleavage of
fibrinogen by thrombin.
Levels of
fibrin monomers can be
measured using blood...

Expanding monomers are
monomers which increase in
volume (expand)
during polymerization. They can be
added to
monomer formulations to
counteract the usual...

whereas in step-growth
polymerization chains of
monomers may combine...
