3-Methylsalicylic acid（Cat No.:I005005） is a compound derived from salicylic acid that exhibits significant fibrinolytic activity in human plasma. It acts by activating the fibrinolytic system, which is responsible for breaking down blood clots. The compound’s ability to promote fibrinolysis suggests its potential as a therapeutic agent for conditions characterized by abnormal blood clotting, such as thrombosis. By enhancing the fibrinolytic system, 3-Methylsalicylic acid may contribute to the dissolution of clots and aid in the restoration of normal blood flow, offering potential benefits in the treatment of clot-related disorders.
