Purification of water: In water works‚ water is usually purified by the addition of certain electrolytes such as potash alum‚ aluminium sulphate etc. This involves the phenomenon of coagulation. The impure water usually contains dispersed colloidal particles which cannot be removed by filtration. When potash alum is added to impure water‚ the negatively charged colloidal particles of impurities get coagulated by the action of Al3+ ions

Replacement of the deficient coagulation factors should be given to neonates with ICH. For individuals with vitamin K-dependent coagulation disorder‚ Vitamin K should be administer. Higher doses maybe required in neonates with factor defiicencies resulting from maternal medications. Patients who develop hydrocephalus after an ICH should

1. How does bleeding from a wound be stopped? A wound stops bleeding due to the process of clot formation called coagulation. Coagulation is from the Latin coagulatus meaning "to cause to curdle". All this chemical action creates a plug called a blood clot. After a time‚ moisture is squeezed out of the clot and it contracts. This process is called syneresis. It’s not widely known but the same chemical process of syneresis also happens in the formation of jams and jellies. 2. How does the immune
