      Introduction

      We have investigated the hypothesis that, in whole blood, the incipient clot formed at the gel point (GP) is characterised by a fractal microstructure1 2 and that this could be detected in healthy and anticoagulated blood. We compared the gel time (GT) required to form the incipient clot …
