Abstract
Effective bleeding management strategies in uncontrollable and noncompressible massive hemorrhage are becoming important in both clinical and combat situations. Here, a novel approach was developed to create a superporous and highly absorbable hemostatic sponge through a facile chemical gas-foaming method by cross-linking long-chain polyphosphate along with nanokaolin and Ca2+ in an alginate structure to synergistically activate the coagulation pathway. Natural kaolin obtained from the Marand mine in East Azarbaijan was converted into pseudohexagonal-shaped kaolin nanoparticles (30 to 150 nm) using ball milling followed by a newly developed glow discharge plasma treatment method. The obtained ultralight sponges (>90% porosity) exhibit ultrarapid water/blood absorption capacity (∼4000%) and excellent shape memory, which effectively concentrates coagulation factors. The results of in vitro tests demonstrated that the proposed sponges exhibited enhanced blood clotting ability (BCI < 10%) and superior cohesion with red blood cells (∼100) and platelets (∼80%) compared to commercially available hemostatic products. The in vivo host response results exhibited biosafety with no systemic and significant local inflammatory response by hematological, pathological, and biochemical parameter assessments. In a rat femoral artery complete excision model, the application of alginate/k/polyp nanocomposite sponges resulted in a complete hemostasis time of 60 s by significant reduction of hemostasis time (∼6.7-8.3 fold) and blood loss (∼2-2.8-fold) compared to commercially available hemostatic agents (P < 0.001). In conclusion, distinct physical characteristics accompanied by unique chemical composition multifunctional sponges activate hemostasis synergistically by triggering the XII, XI, X, IX, V, and II factors and the contact pathway and have the ability of rapid hemostasis in noncompressible severe bleeding.

Abstract
The development of highly effective chitosan-based hemostatic materials that can be utilized for deep wound hemostasis remains a considerable challenge. In this study, a hemostatic antibacterial chitosan/N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide (NHEMAA)/Ti3C2Tx (CSNT) composite cryogel was facilely prepared through the physical interactions between the three components and the spontaneous condensation of NHEMAA. Because of the formation of strong crosslinked network, the CSNT cryogel showed a developed pore structure (~ 99.07 %) and superfast water/blood-triggered shape recovery, enabling it to fill the wound after contacting the blood. Its capillary effect, amino groups, negative charges, and affinity with lipid collectively induced rapid hemostasis, which was confirmed by in vitro and in vivo analysis. In addition, CSNT cryogel showed excellent photothermal antibacterial activities, high biosafety, and in vivo wound healing ability. Furthermore, the presence of chitosan effectively prevented the oxidation of MXene, thus enabling the long-term storage of the MXene-reinforced cryogel. Thus, our hemostatic cryogel demonstrates promising potential for clinical application and commercialization, as it combines high resilience, rapid hemostasis, efficient sterilization, long-term storage, and easy mass production.

Abstract
Severe trauma with massive active blood loss, including liver and spleen rupture, arterial bleeding and pelvic fracture, will lead disability, malformation and even death. Therefore, it is very important to develop new, fast and efficient hemostatic materials. In this study, a novel Gelatin/Kaolin (GE/KA) composite sponge was developed. Meanwhile, to further investigate the effect of kaolin content on sponge properties, we prepared four types of sponges: GE/5% KA, GE/10% KA, GE/15% KA and GE/20% KA. The results of coagulation test in vitro showed that compared to the other groups, there were more activated adhered platelets and red blood cells on the surface of GE/15% KA. The results of hemostasis test in vivo showed that compared to other experimental groups, the GE/15% KA group had significantly less hemostasis time (liver hemostasis model: 69.50 ± 2.81 s; femoral artery hemostasis model: 75.17 ± 3.06 s) and bleeding volume (liver hemostasis model: 219.02 ± 10.39 mg; femoral artery hemostasis model: 948.00 ± 50.69 mg), and was similar to the commercial hemostasis material group. Additionally, the material properties of the sponge were characterized and its biocompatibility was verified as well through cell experiments and in vivo embedding experiments. All these results indicate that the optimal content of kaolin is 15%, which provides a theoretical basis for subsequent research. All in all, the novel GE/KA composite sponge prepared in this study can be used as a multifunctional hemostatic wound dressing for the treatment of complex wounds under various trauma scenes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Immediate control of bleeding and anti-infection play important roles in wound management. Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and death may occur if persistent bleeding, hemodynamic instability, and hypoxemia are not addressed. The combination of clay and hydrogel provides a new outlet for wound hemostasis. In this review, the current research progress of hydrogel/clay composite hemostatic agents was reviewed. AREAS COVERED This paper summarizes the characteristics of several kinds of clay including kaolinite, montmorillonite, laponite, sepiolite, and palygorskite. The advantages and disadvantages of its application in hemostasis were also summarized. Future directions for the application of hydrogel/clay composite hemostatic agents are presented. EXPERT OPINION Clay can activate the endogenous hemostatic pathway by increasing blood cell concentration and promoting plasma absorption to accelerate the hemostasis. Clay is antimicrobial due to the slow release of metal ions and has a rich surface charge with a high affinity for proteins and cells to promote tissue repair. Hydrogels have some properties such as good biocompatibility, strong adhesion, high stretchability, and good self-healing. Despite promising advances, hydrogel/clay composite hemostasis remains a limitation. Therefore, more evidence is needed to further elucidate the risk factors and therapeutic effects of hydrogel/clay in hemostasis and wound healing.

Abstract
Effective wound treatment has become one of the most important challenges for healthcare as it continues to be one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Therefore, wound care technologies significantly evolved in order to provide a holistic approach based on various designs of functional wound dressings. Among them, hydrogels have been widely used for wound treatment due to their biocompatibility and similarity to the extracellular matrix. The hydrogel formula offers the control of an optimal wound moisture level due to its ability to absorb excess fluid from the wound or release moisture as needed. Additionally, hydrogels can be successfully integrated with a plethora of biologically active components (e.g., nanoparticles, pharmaceuticals, natural extracts, peptides), thus enhancing the performance of resulting composite hydrogels in wound healing applications. In this review, the-state-of-the-art discoveries related to stimuli-responsive hydrogel-based dressings have been summarized, taking into account their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and hemostatic properties, as well as other effects (e.g., re-epithelialization, vascularization, and restoration of the tissue) resulting from their use.

Abstract
The occurrence of uncontrolled hemorrhage is a significant threat to human life and health. Although hemostatic materials have made remarkable advances in the biomaterials field, it remains a challenge to develop safe and effective hemostatic materials for global medical use. Natural clay minerals (CMs) have long been used as traditional inorganic hemostatic agents due to their good hemostatic capability, biocompatibility and easy availability. With the advancement of science, technology and ideology, CM-based hemostatic materials have undergone continuous innovations by integrating new inspirations with conventional concepts. This review systematically summarizes the hemostatic mechanisms of different natural CMs based on their nanostructures. Moreover, it also comprehensively reviews the latest research progress for CM-based hemostatic hybrid and nanocomposite materials, and discusses the challenges and developments in this field.

Abstract
In traumatized patients, the primary cause of mortality is uncontrollable continuous bleeding and unexpected intraoperative bleeding which is likely to increase the risk of complications and surgical failure. High expansion sponges are effective clinical practice for the treatment of wound bleeding (irregular/deep/narrow) that are caused by capillaries, veins and even arterioles as they possess a high liquid absorption ratio so can absorb blood platelets easily in comparison with traditional haemostasis treatments, which involve compression, ligation, or electrical coagulation etc. When in contact with blood, haemostatic sponges can cause platelet adhesion, aggregation, and thrombosis, preventing blood from flowing out from wounds, triggering the release of coagulation factors, causing the blood to form a stable polymerized fibre protein, forming blood clots, and achieving the goal of wound bleeding control. Haemostatic sponges are found in a variety of shapes and sizes. The aim of this review is to facilitate an overview of recent research around haemostatic sponge materials, products, and technology. This paper reviews the synthesis, properties, and characteristics of haemostatic sponges, together with the haemostasis mechanisms of haemostatic sponges (composite materials), such as chitosan, cellulose, gelatin, starch, graphene oxide, hyaluronic acid, alginate, polyethylene glycol, silk fibroin, synthetic polymers silver nanoparticles, zinc oxide nanoparticles, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and silica nanoparticles. Also, this paper reviews commercial sponges and their properties. In addition to this, we discuss various in-vitro/in-vivo approaches for the evaluation of the effect of sponges on haemostasis.

Abstract
Increased mortalities associated with uncontrolled and excessive bleeding is still of paramount concern in the clinics, caregivers and military medics. Herein, we designed a shape memory cryogel based on chitosan (C) and functionalized-dextran (D), incorporated with Kaolin (K) and calcium (Ca2+) as haemostatic agents. The developed cryogel (CDKCa) exhibits a uniform interconnected porous architecture with profound fluid absorption ability, rapid blood clotting, stable clot formation and good antibacterial activity. The CDKCa elucidates significantly less clotting time (~30 s; in-vitro) and increased aggregation and activation of platelets/red blood cells in comparison to the control groups and commercial dressings (Axiostat and QuikClot). The developed CDKCa also significantly reduced the aPTT and PT values by ~58 % and 31 % respectively, leading to the activation of intrinsic and extrinsic coagulation cascades. The CDKCa cryogel displays enhanced mechanical stability, flexibility and a good shape memory, a property quintessential to cease uncontrolled bleeding in irregular and non-compressible wounds. Further, the Kaolin and Ca2+ incorporated shape memory CDKCa cryogel demonstrates a rapid blood coagulation and stable clot formation in different compressible and non-compressible rat liver and femur hemorrhagic models. In summary, the endorsed results of CDKCa suggest that the design, fabrication and excellent clotting ability may attribute to high haemostatic efficiency of CDKCa dressing and have a great potential to prevent uncontrollable hemorrhages.

Abstract
Most injuries are accompanied by acute bleeding. Hemostasis is necessary to relieve pain and reduce mortality in these accidents. In recent years, the traditional hemostatic materials, including inorganic, protein-based, polysaccharide-based and synthetic materials have been widely used in the clinic. The most prominent of these are biodegradable collagen sponges (Helistat®, United States), gelatin sponges (Ethicon®, SURGIFOAM®, United States), chitosan (AllaQuixTM, ChitoSAMTM, United States), cellulose (Tabotamp®, SURGICEL®, United States), and the newly investigated extracellular matrix gels, etc. Although these materials have excellent hemostatic properties, they also have their advantages and disadvantages. In this review, the performance characteristics, hemostatic effects, applications and hemostatic mechanisms of various biomaterials mentioned above are presented, followed by several strategies to improve hemostasis, including modification of single materials, blending of multiple materials, design of self-assembled peptides and their hybrid materials. Finally, the exploration of more novel hemostatic biomaterials and relative coagulation mechanisms will be essential for future research on hemostatic methods.

Abstract
The challenge for the treatment of severe traumas poses an urgent clinical need for the development of biomaterials to achieve rapid hemostasis and wound healing. In the past few decades, active inorganic components and their derived composites have become potential clinical products owing to their excellent performances in the process of hemorrhage control and tissue repair. In this review, we provide a current overview of the development of inorganic-based biomaterials used for hemostasis and wound healing. We highlight the methods and strategies for the design of inorganic-based biomaterials, including 3D printing, freeze-drying, electrospinning and vacuum filtration. Importantly, inorganic-based biomaterials for rapid hemostasis and wound healing are presented, and we divide them into several categories according to different chemistry and forms and further discuss their properties, therapeutic mechanisms and applications. Finally, the conclusions and future prospects are suggested for the development of novel inorganic-based biomaterials in the field of rapid hemostasis and wound healing.

Influence of Cedar Essential Oil on Physical and Biological Properties of Hemostatic, Antibacterial, and Antioxidant Polyvinyl Alcohol/Cedar Oil/Kaolin Composite Hydrogels. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14122649. [PMID: 36559143 PMCID: PMC9785206 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14122649] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Revised: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a safe and biodegradable polymer. Given the unique physical and chemical properties of PVA, we physically cross-linked PVA with kaolin (K) and cedar essential oil (Ced) using the freeze-thawing approach to fabricate PVA/Ced/K sponge hydrogels as hemostatic, antibacterial, and antioxidant wound healing materials. The physicochemical characteristics of PVA/Ced/K hydrogels, including water swelling profiles and gel fractions, were surveyed. Additionally, the functional groups of hydrogels were explored by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), while their microstructures were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, the thermal features of the hydrogels were probed by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Evidently, alterations in cedar concentrations resulted in significant variations in size, water uptake profiles, and hydrolytic degradation of the hydrogels. The incorporation of cedar into the PVA/K endowed the hydrogels with significantly improved antibacterial competency against Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli). Moreover, PVA/Ced/K exhibited high scavenging capacities toward ABTS•+ and DPPH free radicals. Beyond that, PVA/Ced/K hydrogels demonstrated hemocompatibility and fast blood clotting performance in addition to biocompatibility toward fibroblasts. These findings accentuate the prospective implementation of PVA/Ced/K composite hydrogel as a wound dressing.

Abstract
Clays have been used as early as 2500 BC in human civilization for medicinal purposes. The ease of availability, biocompatibility, and versatility of these unique charged 2D structures abundantly available in nature have enabled the extensive applications of clays in human history. Recent advances in the use of clays in nanostructures and as components of polymer clay nanocomposites have exponentially expanded the use of clays in medicine. This review covers the details of structures and biomedical applications of several common clays, including montmorillonite, LAPONITE®, kaolinite, and halloysite. Here we describe the applications of these clays in wound dressings as hemostatic agents in drug delivery of drugs for cancer and other diseases and tissue engineering. Also reviewed are recent experimental and modeling studies that elucidate the impact of clay structures on cellular processes and cell adhesion processes. Various mechanisms of clay-mediated bioactivity, including protein localization, modulation of cell adhesion, biomineralization, and the potential of clay nanoparticles to impact cell differentiation, are presented. We also review the current developments in understanding the impact of clays on cellular responses. This review also elucidates new emerging areas of use of nanoclays in osteogenesis and the development of in vitro models of bone metastasis of cancer.

Graphene-ophicalcite heterogeneous composite sponge for rapid hemostasis. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 216:112596.

Abstract
Synergistic functionalization of interface coagulation stimulation and liquid absorption capacity is the key to improve the hemostatic efficiency of hemostats. Herein, we prepared a graphene-ophicalcite (OPH) heterogeneous composite sponge (GOCS) by using the heterogeneous gradient composite strategy. The sponge took cross-linked graphene sponge (CGS) as the main skeleton, allowing the OPH to be controllably positioned on the surface of GOCS. The heterogeneous strategy gave full play to the advantages of the material. On the one hand, GOCS had excellent liquid absorption ability, which enriched blood cells and other coagulation components at the wound interface after contacting blood. On the other hand, the OPH at the interface obviously activated platelets and rapidly triggered coagulation cascade reactions, exhibiting fast response and feedback characteristics for coagulation signals. Under the synergistic effects, the blood clotting index value of GOCS was reduced to 33.87 ± 9.97%, which was significantly lower than those of OPH (46.33 ± 16.85%) and CGS (67.53 ± 5.35%). Importantly, GOCS rapidly stopped bleeding within 51 s in the rat femoral artery model, suggesting its great potential in the field of hemostasis. Therefore, this study provides a new idea for the design and preparation of hemostatic materials via heterogeneous strategy.

Abstract
In this study, graphene oxide (GO)-based aerogels cross-linked with chitosan (CS), gelatin (GEL), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were characterized and their hemostatic efficiencies both in vitro and in vivo were investigated and compared to commercial materials (ChitoGauze®XR and Spongostan™). All aerogels exhibited highly porous structures and a negative surface charge density favorable to their interaction with blood cells. The in vitro studies showed that all aerogels coagulated >60 % of the blood contained in their structures after 240 s of the whole-blood clotting assay, the GO-CS aerogel being the one with the highest blood clotting. All aerogels showed high hemocompatibility, with hemolytic rates <5 %, indicating their use as biomaterials. Among them, the GO-GEL aerogel exhibited the lowest hemolytic activity, due possibly to its high GEL content compared to the GO amount. According to their blood clotting activity, aerogels did not promote coagulation through extrinsic and intrinsic pathways. However, their surfaces are suitable for accelerating hemostasis by promoting alternative routes. All aerogels adhered platelets and gathered RBCs on their surfaces, and in addition the GO-CS aerogel surface also promoted the formation of filamentous fibrin networks adhered on its structure. Furthermore, in vivo evaluations revealed that all aerogels significantly shortened the hemostatic times and reduced the blood loss amounts compared both to the Spongostan™ and ChitoGauze®XR commercial materials and to the gauze sponge (control group). The hemostatic performance in vitro and in vivo of these aerogels suggests that they could be used as hemostats for controlling profuse bleedings.

Abstract
The predominant impediments to cutaneous wound regeneration are hemorrhage and bacterial infections that lead to extensive inflammation with lethal impact. We thus developed a series of composite sponges based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) inspired by marjoram essential oil and kaolin (PVA/marjoram/kaolin), adopting a freeze-thaw method to treat irregular wounds by thwarting lethal bleeding and microbial infections. Microstructure analyses manifested three-dimensional interconnected porous structures for PVA/marjoram/kaolin. Additionally, upon increasing marjoram and kaolin concentrations, the pore diameters of the sponges significantly increased, recording a maximum of 34 ± 5.8 µm for PVA-M0.5-K0.1. Moreover, the porosity and degradation properties of PVA/marjoram/kaolin sponges were markedly enhanced compared with the PVA sponge with high swelling capacity. Furthermore, the PVA/marjoram/kaolin sponges exerted exceptional antibacterial performance against Escherichia coli and Bacillus cereus, along with remarkable antioxidant properties. Moreover, PVA/marjoram/kaolin sponges demonstrated significant thrombogenicity, developing high thrombus mass and hemocompatibility, in addition to their remarkable safety toward fibroblast cells. Notably, this is the first study to our knowledge investigating the effectiveness of marjoram in a polymeric carrier for prospective functioning as a wound dressing. Collectively, the findings suggest the prospective usage of the PVA-M0.5-K0.1 sponge in wound healing for hemorrhage and bacterial infection control.

Abstract
Traumatic hemorrhage can be a fatal event, particularly when large quantities of blood are lost in a short period of time. Therefore, hemostasis has become a crucial part of emergency treatment. For small wounds, hemostasis can be achieved intrinsically depending on the body's own blood coagulation mechanism; however, for large-area wounds, particularly battlefield and complex wounds, materials delivering rapid and effective hemostasis are required. In parallel with the constant progress in science, technology, and society, advances in hemostatic materials have also undergone various iterations by integrating new ideas with old concepts. There are various natural and synthetic hemostatic materials, including hemostatic powders, adhesives, hydrogels, and tourniquets, for the treatment of severe external trauma. This review covers the differences among the currently available hemostatic materials and comprehensively describes the hemostatic effects of different materials based on the underlying mechanisms. Finally, solutions for current issues related to trauma bleeding are discussed, and the prospects of hemostatic materials are proposed.

Abstract
Death from acute hemorrhage is a major problem in military conflicts, traffic accidents, and surgical procedures, et al. Achieving rapid effective hemostasis for pre-hospital care is essential to save lives in massive bleeding. An ideal hemostasis material should have those features such as safe, efficient, convenient, economical, which remains challenging and most of them cannot be achieved at the same time. In this work, we report a rapid effective nanoclay-based hemostatic membranes with nanoclay particles incorporate into polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) electrospun fibers. The nanoclay electrospun membrane (NEM) with 60 wt% kaolinite (KEM1.5) shows better and faster hemostatic performance in vitro and in vivo with good biocompatibility compared with most other NEMs and clay-based hemostats, benefiting from its enriched hemostatic functional sites, robust fluffy framework, and hydrophilic surface. The robust hemostatic bandages based on nanoclay electrospun membrane is an effective candidate hemostat in practical application. Rapid, easy and effective haemostasis is needed to reduce the loss of life from traumatic haemorrhage. Here, the authors report on the creation of polymer-nanoclay electrospun membranes and demonstrate haemostatic effects showing superior effects to other clay based haemostats.

Abstract
Wounds are one of the most common health issues, and the cost of wound care and healing has continued to increase over the past decade. The first step in wound healing is haemostasis, and the development of haemostatic materials that aid wound healing has accelerated in the past 5 years. Numerous haemostatic materials have been fabricated, composed of different active components (including natural polymers, synthetic polymers, silicon-based materials and metal-containing materials) and in various forms (including sponges, hydrogels, nanofibres and particles). In this Review, we provide an overview of haemostatic materials in wound healing, focusing on their chemical design and operation. We describe the physiological process of haemostasis to elucidate the principles that underpin the design of haemostatic wound dressings. We also highlight the advantages and limitations of the different active components and forms of haemostatic materials. The main challenges and future directions in the development of haemostatic materials for wound healing are proposed.

Abstract
Blood plays an essential role in the human body. Hemorrhage is a critical cause of both military and civilian casualties. The human body has its own hemostatic mechanism that involves complex processes and has limited capacity. However, in emergency situations such as battlefields and hospitals, when the hemostatic mechanism of the human body itself cannot stop bleeding effectively, hemostatic materials are needed for saving lives. In this review, the hemostatic mechanisms and performance of the most commonly used hemostatic materials, (including fibrin, collagen, zeolite, gelatin, alginate, chitosan, cellulose and cyanoacrylate) and the commercial wound dressings based on these materials, will be discussed. These materials may have limitations, such as poor tissue adhesion, risk of infection and exothermic reactions, that may lessen their hemostatic efficacy and cause secondary injuries. High-performance hemostatic materials, therefore, have been designed and developed to improve hemostatic efficiency in clinical use. In this review, hemostatic materials with advanced performances, such as antibacterial capacity, superhydrophobicity/superhydrophilicity, superelasticity, high porosity and/or biomimicry, will be introduced. Future prospects of hemostatic materials will also be discussed in this review.

Improved hemocompatibility for gelatin-graphene oxide composite aerogels reinforced with proanthocyanidins for wound dressing applications. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2021; 206:111941. [PMID: 34216847 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2021.111941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 06/14/2021] [Accepted: 06/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Aerogels based on gelatin and graphene oxide (GO) were synthesized by microwave-assisted reactions, incorporating grape skin extracts -high in proanthocyanidins (PAs)- to develop a hemostatic device with improved properties. The effects of incorporating PAs into the aerogels were investigated in relation to their physicochemical properties, absorption ability, clotting activity and cytotoxicity in human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells. The aerogels presented highly resistant porous structures, capable of absorbing more than 50 times their weight when in contact with a phosphate saline solution (PBS) and fresh human blood. Interestingly, the addition of PAs increased the negative surface charges and the blood absorption ability of the aerogels, which may make them suitable for hemostasis. The incorporation of 5% and 10% (w/w) of extracts into the aerogels increased the total coagulated blood content by 36.6% and 24.5% compared with gelatin-GO aerogel, respectively. These improvements in the hemostatic properties of the aerogels were greater with the inclusion of 5% (w/w) of grape skin extracts into the aerogels. The aerogels were also able to adhere red blood cells onto their surfaces, which could favor the formation of stable fibrin networks to promote hemostasis. Their clotting activity suggested the activation of alternative routes based on complement coagulation systems. Finally, the aerogels were non-toxic for HDF cells and the PAs were successfully released from their matrices. Thus, gelatin-GO aerogels reinforced with PAs are promising as topical phytodrug delivery systems, with great potential for wound healing processes.

Study on hemostatic effect and mechanism of starch-based nano-microporous particles. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 179:507-518. [PMID: 33711370 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.03.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Revised: 02/22/2021] [Accepted: 03/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
The powdered hemostatic particles have broad application prospects in large open wounds, internal organ injuries and penetrating injuries of the body. In this study, nanoscale mescoporous and macroporous silica (MMSN), nanoscale mescoporous and macroporous bioactive glass (MBG), micron-scale cross-linked corn starch porous microspheres (CMS), MMSN@CMS and MBG@CMS starch-based nano-microporous particles were synthesized and their hemostatic effect and hemostatic mechanism were studied. The results showed that comparted with the single particle of CMS, the combination particles MBG@CMS and MMSN@CMS significantly increased the water absorption rate, activated both internal and external coagulation pathways, significantly shortened CBT, as well as the improved hemostatic effects in vitro. The immediately released Ca2+ from MBG@CMS in the blood to participate in the coagulation pathway, and MMSN@CMS activated platelets by concentrating blood coagulation factors, might be the main hemostatic mechanisms for the starch-based nano-microporous particles. Furthermore, the hemostatic efficacy of particles, both in the model of tail-amputation and liver injury in SD rats, showed the starch-based nano-microporous particles, especial MBG@CMS, could significantly reduce the weight of blood loss and shorten the bleeding time. Our research work stated that the starch-based nano-microporous particles MBG@CMS might be a hemostasis biomaterial with the potential applications for the emergency bleeding.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is the major hindrance over the wound healing, which triggers microbial infections and might provoke traumatic death. Herein, new hemostatic and antibacterial PVA/Kaolin composite sponges were crosslinked using a freeze-thawing approach and boosted by penicillin–streptomycin (Pen-Strep). Physicochemical characteristics of developed membranes were analyzed adopting Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), a thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Furthermore, the impacts of kaolin concentrations on porosity, swelling behavior, gel fraction, and degradation of the membranes were investigated. SEM analyses revealed a spongy-like structure of hydrogels associated with high dispersion of kaolin inside PVA matrix. The thermal characteristics of PVA/Kaolin were significantly ameliorated compared to the prime PVA. Moreover, the results exhibited significant variations of swelling performance, surface roughness and pore capacity due to the alterations of kaolin contents. Besides, the adhesive strength ability was manifestly enhanced for PVA-K0.1 sponge. Biomedical evaluations including antibacterial activity, blood clotting index and thrombogenicity of the membranes were studied. The contact of PVA/Kaolin to blood revealed notable augmentation in blood clotting. Furthermore, the incorporation of kaolin into PVA presented mild diminution in antibacterial activities. Moreover, PVA/Kaolin composites illustrated no cellular toxicity towards fibroblast cells. These remarkable features substantiate that the PVA-K0.1 sponge could be applied as a multifunctional wound dressing.

Abstract
The natural mechanisms of the body cannot control massive hemorrhaging, resulting in a requirement for hemostatic intervention. In this study, Graphene oxide and Chitosan aerogels reinforced with grape seed (SD) and skin (SK) extracts were developed for use as hemostatic agents by evaluating the influence of pH on their synthesis, and the amount of grape extract added on the physical and chemical properties of the aerogels. The material was evaluated by FTIR, XRD, Raman spectroscopy, DLS, uniaxial compression tests and SEM. The capacity of the aerogels to absorb water, PBS and blood, as well as their coagulation capacity, were determined. In addition, the release profile for grape extracts in PBS and the material's cytotoxicity were determined. The aerogels that were synthesized under basic conditions and loaded with grape extracts were more rigid and negatively charged, and they presented smaller pores than the un-loaded acidic aerogels. For all aerogels, the hemoglobin absorption was greater than 90 % in the first 30 s. A higher density of adsorbed blood cells was observed on aerogels loaded with a higher amount of grape extract. The maximum release of extract from the aerogels occurred for those loaded with SK extracts at a basic pH; the aerogels that were prepared under acidic conditions dissolved in the media. Aerogels loaded with SK extracts under alkaline conditions were not cytotoxic toward human dermal fibroblasts and exhibited cell viabilities above 90 %. These findings suggest that these aerogels have the potential for use as hemostatic agents in wound management.

Abstract
Because of the widespread presence of antibiotics in water, soil, and other environments, they pose great potential risks to the environment, threatening human and animal health. In this study, graphene oxide-kaolinite homogeneous dispersion was prepared by simple liquid phase exfoliation. The three-dimensional (3D) porous graphene oxide-kaolinite-poly(vinyl alcohol) composites were prepared by the cross-linking of poly(vinyl alcohol) and the formation of ice crystals during the freezing-drying process. Three influencing factors [adsorbent dosage, ciprofloxacin (CIP) initial concentration, and time] of CIP adsorption and removal were systematically analyzed by the response surface method. The order of significance for response values (CIP removal rate) was adsorbent dosage > CIP initial concentration > time. The 3D porous material showed good adsorption capacity of CIP, the theoretical maximum adsorption capacity was 408.16 mg/g, and it had good recyclability. By Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis, it was found the composite adsorbs CIP by hydrogen bonding and π-π interaction. In conclusion, the graphene oxide-kaolinite-poly(vinyl alcohol) porous composite is a good candidate for efficient antibiotic wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The development of a rapid and effective hemostatic dressing is highly desired in the treatment of hemorrhagic wounds. In this study, sponges with Janus character are developed using cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) that exhibit materials facets of different wettability characteristics using heterogeneous mixing and freeze-drying. The bonding of the interface between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic facets is achieved by using interpenetrating chemical cross-linking between CNFs and organosilanes. The hydrophilic layer absorbs water from blood and works synergistically with the inherent hemostatic chitosan-rich complementary layer to accelerate blood clotting, displaying both active and passive hemostatic mechanisms. The hydrophobic layer prevents blood penetration into the construct and exerts proper pressure on the wound. Compared with the hydrophilic control samples and commercial gauzes, the Janus sponges can achieve effective bleeding control with nearly 50% less blood loss in a femoral artery injury model and prolong the survival time in a carotid artery injury model. Compared with the only hydrophilic layer, the time to hemostasis of Janus sponge are reduced from 165 ± 20 to 131 ± 26 s in femoral artery injury model and from 102 ± 21 to 83 ± 15 s in liver femoral artery injury model.

Abstract
It is important to develop effective, biocompatible, easily stored and affordable hemostats for controlling bleeding and preventing infection in prehospital trauma. In this study, we synthesized a series of alginate-based composite microspheres coated by different amounts of berberine (SCC-1B, SCC-5B and SCC-10B), which were further characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), viscometer, particle analyzer and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The in vitro and vivo results demonstrated that compared to control group (SCC, Composite polysaccharide microspheres without berberine, and CMPHP, Commercial hemostatic agent), SCC-10B with proper content berberine (7%), not only exhibited inherent excellent antibacterial activity, but also enhanced hemostatic effect by increasing adhesion and aggregation of blood cells, which could be considered as synergistic effects. More importantly, through inserting berberine into the cross-linked network, biodegradability and biocompatibility of SCC-10B were also improved. Taken together, SCC-10B could be a candidate for emergency hemostatic and antibacterial treatment in prehospital trauma.

Abstract
Wound bleeding and infection are two of the major threats to patients' lives, but developing safe materials with high hemostasis efficiency and antibacterial activity remains a major challenge. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are suitable as antibacterial agents in the hemostatic process, but the application is hampered because of easy accumulation of toxicity. Herein, thiol-modified chitosan (TMC) was prepared by modifying with mercaptosuccinic acid and then was used to immobilize AgNPs to obtain composite sponges (TMC/AgNPs) for stemming the bleeding and preventing infection. TMC/AgNPs sponges had complex interlaced tubular porous structure with high porosity (99.42%), indicating high absorption. TMC had high immobilization efficiency for AgNPs-the release rate of AgNPs was 14.35% after 14 days-but the TMC/AgNPs sponge still had excellent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirm that the TMC/AgNPs sponge had fast and efficient hemostatic performance in comparison with the PVF sponge, and its possible mechanism was the synergistic effect of high blood absorption capacity and the interaction between amino, sulfydryl, and blood cells. Furthermore, the TMC/AgNPs sponge can promote wound healing by preventing wound infection, while the PVF sponge cannot. More importantly, the sponges had good safety due to the immobilization of TMC for AgNPs.

Abstract
Rapid and effective hemostatic materials have received wide attention not only in the battlefield but also in hospitals and clinics. Traditional hemostasis relies on materials with little designability which has many limitations. Nanohemostasis has been proposed since the use of peptides in hemostasis. Nanomaterials exhibit excellent adhesion, versatility, and designability compared to traditional materials, laying a good foundation for future hemostatic materials. This review first summarizes current hemostatic methods and materials, and then introduces several cutting-edge designs and applications of nanohemostatic materials such as polypeptide assembly, electrospinning of cyanoacrylate, and nanochitosan. Particularly, their advantages and working mechanisms are introduced. Finally, the challenges and prospects of nanohemostasis are discussed.

Abstract
The assembly of graphene oxide with biomass or polymers to form 3D hydrogels with excellent mechanical properties has become a research hotspot. In this work, the sponge-like kaolin/chitosan (CS)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite was prepared for adsorption by simple self-assembly without cross-linking agent. The morphology, composition, surface properties, and pore size of as-prepared materials were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), zeta potential analyzer, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area measurement (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effects of raw material ratio, contact time, temperature, pH, ionic strength, and recycling times on adsorption performance were investigated in detail. The results indicate that the composite has good absorption capacity for Cr(VI) and alizarin yellow R (AYR). Besides, composite hydrogel also exhibits excellent flexibility and good repeatability, which confirms its great potential as an adsorbent to remove pollutants in the water environment.

Characterization and Hemostatic Potential of Two Kaolins from Southern China. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24173160. [PMID: 31480278 PMCID: PMC6749497 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24173160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2019] [Revised: 08/25/2019] [Accepted: 08/28/2019] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The physicochemical properties and potential hemostatic application of Wenchang kaolin and Maoming kaolin were inspected and evaluated. Chemical composition analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, surface area determination, X-ray diffraction, particle size, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations, and zeta potential analysis were performed to quantify the physical and chemical properties of the two kaolins. The results showed that both kaolins have typical FTIR bands of kaolinite with a weight fraction for kaolinite over 90 wt%. Larger conglobate aggregates of Maoming kaolin demonstrated wider particle size distributions with two peaks at 3.17 and 35.57 μm, while the book-like Wenchang kaolin had narrow particle size distribution, with a frequent size of 5.64 μm. Furthermore, thrombelastography, the whole blood clotting tests (WBCT), plasma recalcification time (PRT) measurement, and MTT assay were performed to measure the clotting activities and biocompatibility of the two kaolins. The results showed that both kaolins could promote blood coagulation with good cytocompatibility, while Wenchang kaolin had a better procoagulant activity than Maoming kaolin. These findings demonstrated Wenchang kaolin to be a more suitable local source material for application as a hemostatic agent.

Abstract
Thermal release of zeolite is conducive in hemostasis, but losing control will cause serious burns. How to balance the advantages and disadvantages is a challenge. Herein, a zeolite/cross-linked graphene sponge (Z-CGS) was design to break through this challenge. The CGS managed the heat release of zeolite by thermal conduction of graphene. Infrared thermal imager demonstrated the mild exothermic process and good thermal conductivity of the optimized Z-CGS. It controlled wound temperature below 42 °C effectively, as compared to 70 °C of naked zeolite. Blood clotting index further confirmed the contribution of thermal stimulation in Z-CGS. On the synergy of thermal and charge stimulations of zeolite, as well as physical adsorption of CGS, Z-CGS achieved outstanding hemostatic performance. Bleeding was stopped within 69 s in rat artery injury model, faster than that of the Quikclot Combat Gauze. Additionally, cytotoxicity assay and pathological analysis highlighted its biocompatibility. Z-CGS, therefore, was an outstanding composite of combining advantages of zeolite and graphene, while getting rid of the shortcomings of the basic unit. The thermal conductibility of graphene renews an avenue for the safe and highly efficient use of zeolite in hemostasis.

[PMID: 30419476 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2018.10.074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2018] [Revised: 09/28/2018] [Accepted: 10/25/2018] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) is a promising hemostatic material because of its platelet stimulatory activity. However, our previous studies on cross-linked graphene sponges demonstrated that those sponges lost the GO function of platelet stimulation due to the pristine GO was reduced under the harsh reaction conditions. Accordingly, a mild cross-linking strategy is expected to preserve the oxygen-containing groups to further increase the hemostatic performance of the sponges. Here, we present a polydopamine (PDA) cross-linked GO sponge (DCGO) by using mild and facile wet chemistry. The obtained DCGO possessed a high surface charge (-31.3 ± 0.3 mV) and showed strong platelet stimulation. Moreover, this method strengthened the mechanical properties of the DCGO, which supported 350 times its own weight without deformation, thus ensuring its absorbability. For the synergy of platelet stimulation and physical absorption, DCGO achieved outstanding hemostatic performance. Bleeding stopped within 105 ± 15 s, which was 165 s faster than that of the un-cross-linked GO aerogel and 96 s faster than that of the cross-linked graphene sponge (CGS). The DCGO combines the advantages of both PDA and GO, thus supplying a new material and method for the field of trauma hemostasis.
