Fish whites contain a special protein called protamine, which is the simplest alkaline protein in nature.
It is a good medicine to stop bleeding.
Protamine and protamine are not only used to treat hemoptysis and severe bleeding caused by severe hepatitis, but can also be combined with the sulfate group of the anticoagulant heparin, causing heparin to quickly lose its anticoagulant activity.
Protamine can form mixtures with drugs such as insulin, antibiotics, and adrenocortical hormones to prolong the efficacy of these drugs.
For a patient who needs insulin injections three times a day, if he uses protamine zinc insulin injection made of protamine and zinc, the insulin injection interval can be extended to once every 24 to 48 hours.

2 Dictionaries mistakenly say that the editor of "Modern Chinese Dictionary" explains "Yubai" as: "(1) Fish semen. (2)
” explanation is untenable.
Common sense in life tells us: "fish white" is not "fish semen".
I see a lot of yellow croakers, some of which are roe, and some of which are white.
The one with fish roe is female, and the one with fish white is male.
There are two white fish.
Wrapped in film, it tastes slightly astringent but delicious when cooked.
It can be seen that the "fish white" is not the semen of the fish, but the reproductive organs of the male fish.
On page 75 of the book "Vertebrate Zoology" published by Peking University Press, it reads: "A pair of testes (commonly known as Yubai) are white in color and increase in size during the reproductive season to almost the same length as the body cavity." About here
Yubai's description is completely consistent with our life experience.
This professional book not only describes the form, but also clarifies the scientific and common names.
3 Renjian Food Editor The fish whiteness of pufferfish [1] Many people accidentally watched the movie "The Embalmer" and discovered the word "fish white".
I thought it was the belly part of the fish, but I was actually wrong.
As a delicacy, fish white refers specifically to the fish white of puffer fish, that is, the testes of the male puffer fish, also known as Xishi milk.
As for the origin of the name, it is probably taken from Su Shi's famous saying "It is far sweeter than Xizi milk, and the King of Wu did not know it at the time."
The puffer fish produced in Tianjin is the most famous in the world, and its most delicious taste is the white fish.
Its texture is sweet and tender, and its taste is the best in sea food. There is a proverb among the people: "If you don't eat fish white, you don't know the taste of fish. If you eat fish white, all fish will be tasteless."
As we all know, Su Shi, the great poet of the Song Dynasty, loved pufferfish. In addition to the famous sentence "The ground is full of artemisia and the reed buds are short, it is the time when pufferfish is about to bloom." His friend Lu Yuanming once asked him how delicious pufferfish was and how talented he was like Su Shi.
After holding it in for a long time, he only said one sentence: "It's worth dying."
Later, this allusion became a good story, and Cui Xu of the Qing Dynasty included the line "It's worth Dongpo's death, everyone eats puffer fish" in his poem "Jinmen Baiwei".
