Abstract
Hemorrhage is one of the leading causes of preventable death. While minor injuries can be treated mainly by conventional methods, deep and irregular wounds with profuse bleeding present significant challenges, some of which can be life-threatening and fatal. This underscores the need to develop easily applicable FDA-approved hemostatic treatments that can effectively stanch blood loss at the point of care before professional medical care. A silicone-based bandage system (SilFoam), a non-compressible, self-expanding, antibacterial hemostatic treatment, is reported here. Its two-component system reacts in situ upon mixing to form a stretchable sponge that acts as a 'tamponade' by expanding within seconds with the evolution of oxygen gas from the interaction of the reactive components present in the formulation. This generates autogenous pressure on the wound that can effectively arrest heavy bleeding within minutes. Possessing optimal adhesive properties, the expanded sponge can be easily removed, rendering it optimal for hemostatic wound dressing. With recent advances in biotechnological research, there is a growing awareness of the potential issues associated with in vivo trials, spanning ethical, psychological, economic, and physiological concerns like burnout and fatigue. Bearing this in mind, a unique manikin system simulating a deep abdominal wound has been employed to investigate SilFoam's hemostatic efficacy with different blood-flow rates using a non-invasive model that aims to provide an easy, fast, and economical route to test hemostatic treatments before in vivo studies. This is the first time an Ag2O-based oxygen-induced foaming system has been reported as a hemostatic agent.

Abstract
Controlling bleeding by applying pressing cotton gauze is the most facile treatment in prehospital emergencies. However, the wettable nature of cotton fibers leads to unnecessary blood loss due to excessive blood absorption, inseparable adhesion-induced pain, and pliable to infection. Here, a kind of ultra-hydrophobic haemostatic anti-adhesive gauze whose surface is loaded with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and hydrophobic-modified cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), achieving a water contact angle of ≈160° is developed. It is demonstrated that the mechanism by which hydrophobic CNCs promote blood clotting is associated with their ability to activate coagulation factors, contributing to fibrin formation, and promoting platelet activation. The blood-restricting effect results from the low surface energy layer formed by PDMS and then the alkyl chains of hydrophobic CNCs are combined. The produced ultra-hydrophobic gauze resists blood flow and diffusion, decreases blood loss, is effortlessly peelable, and minimizes pathogen adhesion. Compared to the commercial cotton gauze, this gauze achieved effective haemostasis and antiadhesion by reducing blood loss by more than 90%, shortening haemostasis time by more than 75%, lowering peeling force by more than 90% and minifying bacterium attachment by more than 95%. This work presents promising applications in terms of prehospital first aid.

Abstract
Severe bleeding and bacterial infections pose significant challenges to the global public health. Effective hemostatic materials have the potential to be used for rapid control of bleeding at the wound site. In this study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) were doped with zinc ions (MSN@Zn) and subsequently functionalized with carboxyl (-COOH) groups through post-grafting, resulting in (MSN@Zn-COOH). The results demonstrated the successful functionalization of carboxyl groups on the surface of MSN@Zn mesoporous materials with minimal impact on the morphology. The released zinc ions showed potent antibacterial activity (above ∼80 %) against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In vitro and in vivo assessments of MSN@Zn-COOH revealed excellent hemostatic effects and favorable blood compatibility. Hemolysis percentages associated with MSN@Zn-COOH exhibited noteworthy reductions in comparison to MSN. Furthermore, a decrease in APTT (a test evaluating the intrinsic coagulation pathway) of modified MSN@Zn indicated enhanced hemostasis, supported by their negative zeta potential (∼ -14 to -43 mV). Importantly, all samples showed no cytotoxicity. This work underscores the potential of MSN@Zn-COOH, with its combined hemostatic performance and antibacterial activity, for emergency clinical applications.

Abstract
Dragon's blood (DB) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with hemostatic effects and antibacterial properties. However, it is still challenging to use for rapid hemostasis because of its insolubility. In this study, different amounts of DB were loaded on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) to prepare a series of DB-MSN composites (5DB-MSN, 10DB-MSN, and 20DB-MSN). DB-MSN could quickly release DB and activate the intrinsic blood coagulation cascade simultaneously by DB and MSN. Hemostasis tests demonstrated that DB-MSN showed superior hemostatic effects than either DB or MSNs alone, and 10DB-MSN exhibited the best hemostatic effect. In addition, the antibacterial activities of DB-MSN against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) improved with the increase in DB. Furthermore, the hemolysis assay and cytocompatibility assay demonstrated that all DB-MSNs exhibited excellent biocompatibility. Based on these results, 10DB-MSN is expected to have potential applications for emergency hemostatic and antibacterial treatment in pre-hospital trauma.

Abstract
The ideal hemostatic agents should be able to stop bleeding quickly and avoid secondary bleeding caused by adhesion with blood clots during dressing change. Herein, a hydrophobic electrospun nanofiber membrane was prepared for achieving hemostasis, rationally targeting both attributes, via doping N-alkylated chitosan (N-CS) grafted with octadecyl into chitosan/polyethylene oxide (PEO). In vitro and in vivo coagulation tests showed that CPNs doped with small amounts of N-CS (CPN31) could significantly shorten hemostasis time and promote the formation of more stable and stronger blood clots. In particular, the whole blood clotting time of CPN31 (58.8 ± 2.2 s) was significantly lower than that of chitosan/PEO (CPN0) nanofiber membrane (67 ± 3.5 s) and the medical sterile gauze (86.7 ± 0.6 s). Furthermore, due to the hemophobic nature of CPNs, blood wetting of the dressing was severely limited and blood can coagulated at the site of liver injury in rats, thus reducing blood loss and allowing rapid removal of the dressing without triggering secondary hemorrhage. The CPN31 exhibited excellent hemostasis properties, easy to remove, blood compatibility, biocompatibility and promoting fibroblast proliferation properties. This hydrophobic CPNs is a promising biological adhesive for hemorrhage control.

Abstract
Uncontrolled bleeding that occurs during surgery, trauma, and in combat conditions is critical and require immediate action. Chitosan is a polysaccharide, obtained from natural sources with unique biological properties. It is often used as basis for local hemostatic agents (LHA). We summarized the data on hemostatic properties of chitosan, commercially available chitosan-based products with focus in the field of chemical modification of chitosan. Various approaches are used to enhance hemostatic activity of chitosan-based materials. The approach with chemical modification of chitosan allows changing the properties of the polymer in order to obtain an active macromolecule that contributes to hemostasis. Ongoing research on the mechanism of interaction with blood components in the case of different chitosan derivatives will make it possible to identify promising directions for chemical modification to obtain an effective LHA.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS)-based scaffolds loaded with Pinus radiata extract bark (PE) and grape seed extract (GSE) were successfully developed for wound dressing applications. The effects of incorporating GSE and PE in CS scaffolds were investigated in relation to their physicochemical and biological properties. All scaffolds exhibited porous structures with the ability to absorb more than 70 times their weight when contacted with blood and phosphate buffer solution. The incorporation of GSE and PE into the CS scaffolds increased their blood absorption ability and degradation rates over time. All scaffolds showed a clotting ability above 95%, with their surfaces being favorable for red blood cell attachment. Both GSE and PE were released from the CS scaffolds in a sustained manner. Scaffolds loaded with GSE and PE inhibited the bacterial activity of S. aureus and E. coli by 40% and 44% after 24 h testing. In vitro cell viability studies demonstrated that all scaffolds were nontoxic to HaCaT cells. Importantly, the addition of GSE and PE further increased cell viability compared to that of the CS scaffold. This study provides a new synthesis method to immobilize GSE and PE on CS scaffolds, enabling the formation of novel material platforms with a high potential for wound dressing applications.

Abstract
This study reported the development of a composite sponge (ACATS) based on alkylated chitosan (AC) and attapulgite (AT) for rapid hemostasis. The well-designed ACATS, with an optimal AC N-alkylation of 5.9 % and an optimal AC/AT mass ratio of 3:1, exhibited a hierarchical porous structure with a favorable biocompatibility. The ACATS can effectively and rapidly stop the uncontrolled bleeding in 235 ± 64 s with a total blood loss of 8.4 ± 4.0 g in comparison with those of Celox as a positive control (602 ± 101 s and 22.3 ± 2.4 g, respectively) using rabbit carotid artery injury model in vivo. ACATS could rapidly interact with blood and its components, including platelets (PLs), red blood cells (RBCs), and coagulation factors, resulting in these blood components rapidly accumulation and the following thrombus formation and coagulation factors activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The silicified cell wall of diatoms, also known as frustule, shows huge potential as an outstanding bio-nanomaterial for hemostatic applications due to its high hemostatic efficiency, good biocompatibility, and ready availability. As the architectural features of the frustule determine its hemostatic performance, it is of great interest to develop an effective method to modify the frustule morphology into desired patterns to further improve hemostatic efficiency. RESULTS In this study, the gene encoding Silicalemma Associated Protein 2 (a silicalemma-spanning protein) of Cyclotella cryptica (CcSAP2) was identified as a key gene in frustule morphogenesis. Thus, it was overexpressed and knocked down, respectively. The frustule of the overexpress lines showed no obvious alteration in morphology compared to the wild type (WT), while the size, specific surface area (BET), pore volume, and pore diameter of the knockdown strains changed greatly. Particularly, the knockdown frustules achieved a more pronounced coagulation effect and in vivo hemostatic performance than the WT strains. Such observations suggested that silicalemma proteins are ideal genetic encoding targets for manipulating frustule morphology associated hemostatic properties. Furthermore, the Mantel test was adopted to identify the key morphologies associated with C. cryptica bleeding control. Finally, based on our results and recent advances, the mechanism of frustule morphogenesis was discussed. CONCLUSION This study explores a new strategy for enhancing the hemostatic efficiency of the frustule based on genetic morphology modification and may provide insights into a better understanding of the frustule morphogenesis mechanism.

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
Current hemostatic agents or dressings are not efficient under extremely hot and cold environments due to deterioration of active ingredients, water evaporation and ice crystal growth. To address these challenges, we engineered a biocompatible hemostatic system with thermoregulatory properties for harsh conditions by combining the asymmetric wetting nano-silica aerogel coated-gauze (AWNSA@G) with a layer-by-layer (LBL) structure. Our AWNSA@G was a dressing with a tunable wettability prepared by spraying the hydrophobic nano-silica aerogel onto the gauze from different distances. The hemostatic time and blood loss of the AWNSA@G were 5.1 and 6.9 times lower than normal gauze in rat's injured femoral artery model. Moreover, the modified gauze was torn off after hemostasis without rebleeding, approximately 23.8 times of peak peeling force lower than normal gauze. For the LBL structure, consisting of the nano-silica aerogel layer and a n-octadecane phase change material layer, in both hot (70 °C) and cold (-27 °C) environments, exhibited dual-functional thermal management and maintained a stable internal temperature. We further verified our composite presented superior blood coagulation effect in extreme environments due to the LBL structure, the pro-coagulant properties of nano-silica aerogel and unidirectional fluid pumping of AWNSA@G. Our work, therefore, shows great hemostasis potential under normal and extreme temperature environments.

Abstract
Recently, increasing attention has been paid to natural polysaccharides for their low cost, biocompatibility and biodegradability. Quaternization is a modification method to improve the solubility and antibacterial ability of natural polysaccharides. Water-soluble derivatives of cellulose, chitin and chitosan offer the prospect of diverse applications in a wide range of fields, such as antibacterial products, drug delivery, wound healing, sewage treatment and ion exchange membranes. By combining the inherent properties of cellulose, chitin and chitosan with the inherent properties of the quaternary ammonium groups, new products with multiple functions and properties can be obtained. In this review, we summarized the research progress in the applications of quaternized cellulose, chitin and chitosan in recent five years. Moreover, ubiquitous challenges and personal perspectives on the further development of this promising field are also discussed.

Abstract
It remains a challenge to develop effective hemostatic products in battlefield rescue for noncompressible massive hemorrhage. Some previous research had concentrated on the modification of different materials to improve the hemostasis ability of sponges. Herein, to investigate the relationship between the taper of microchannels and hemostatic performance of porous sponges, gelatin methacryloyl-based sponges with designed conical microchannels and a disordered porous structure were prepared using the 3D printing method and freeze-drying technology. Experiments and theoretical model analysis demonstrated that the taper and distribution of microchannels in the sponge affected the water and blood absorption properties, as well as the expansion ability. In treatment of SD rat liver defect and SD rat liver perforation wound, GS-1 sponge with the taper (1/15) microchannels exhibited an excellent hemostatic effect with blood loss of 0.866 ± 0.093 g and a hemostasis time of 280 ± 10 s. Results showed that the hemostatic capacities of GelMA sponges were increased with the bottom diameter (taper) of conical microchannels. This is a potential strategy to develop designed taper sponges with designed taper microchannels for rapidly controlling hemorrhage.

Silk composite interfacial layer eliminates rebleeding with chitosan-based hemostats. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 304:120479.

Abstract
Chitosan foams are among the approved hemostats for pre-hospital hemorrhagic control but suffer from drawbacks related to mucoadhesiveness and rebleeding. Herein, we have developed a designer bilayered hemostatic foam consisting of a bioactive layer composed of silica particles (≈300 nm) and silk fibroin to serve as the tissue interfacing component on a chitosan foam. The foam composition was optimized based on the in vitro clotting behavior and cytocompatibility of individual components. In vivo analysis in a rat model demonstrated that the developed hemostat could achieve rapid clotting (31 ± 4 s), similar to a chitosan-based hemostat, but the former had significantly lower blood loss. Notably, removal of the bilayered hemostat prevented rebleeding, unlike the chitosan foam, which was associated with markedly higher incidences of rebleeding (50 %) and left behind material residue. Thus, the designer bilayered foam presented here is a potent inducer of blood clotting whilst affording easy removal with minimal rebleeding.

Abstract
Natural polymers have been particularly appealing for constructing hemostatic materials/devices, but it is still desirable to develop new natural polymer-based biomaterials with balanced hemostatic and wound-healing performance. In this work, a natural polyphenol-functionalized chitosan/gelatin sponge (PCGS) was prepared by the lyophilization of a chitosan/gelatin mixture solution (under a self-foaming condition to prepare the CGS) and subsequent chemical cross-linking with procyanidin (PC). Compared with the original CGS, PCGS exhibited an enhanced liquid-absorption ability, reduced surface charges, and similar/low hemolysis rate. Benefiting from such a liquid-absorption ability (∼4000% for whole blood and normal saline) and moderate surface charges, PCGS exhibited high in vitro hemostatic property and promising hemostatic performance in an in vivo femoral-artery-injury model. In addition, PCGS possessed higher antioxidant property and slightly decreased antibacterial ability than CGS, owing to the incorporation of PC. The feasibility of PCGS for treating infected wounds was further confirmed in an in vivo infected-tooth-extraction model, as the typical complication of intractable tooth-extraction bleeding. The present work demonstrated a facile approach for developing multifunctional hemostatic materials through the flexible management of natural polymers and polyphenols.

Abstract
The medical disinfection cotton gauze is the most frequently used medical consumables for wound care. Here this ordinary commercial gauze was upgraded to a hemostatic gauze, which was loaded with mesoporous silica through in-situ synthesis and further microwave treatment. The original cotton gauze was pretreated with NaOH solutions for surface activation, soaked in double-silica source precursor solution for moderate in-situ synthesis, treated with microwave for quick template removement and dehydration. The final obtained hemostatic gauze (MS-G1) showed superior physical, biocompatible and hemostatic advantages. The newborn mesoporous silica was firmly anchored onto the cotton fiber surface with <20% leaching after 10 min of sonication. The microwave treatment not only shortened the time for template removal but also promotes the formation of mesoporous structure. The clotting blood time (CBT) of MS-G1 were only (62.00 ± 5.56 s), which was 23.14% shorter than that of original medical gauze, and even 3.6% shorter than Combat Gauze (CG). MS-G1 also showed excellent biocompatibility in cytotoxicity tests of L-929 cells, with a 116% proliferation rate at the concentration of 5 mg/mL. Furthermore, the hemostatic performance was explored on a rabbit wound model of hemorrhagic liver injury, and MS-G1 showed both shorter hemostasis time (113.75 s) and less blood loss (1.69 g) than that of CG (180.00 s, 5.13 g). The hemostatic gauze anchored with mesoporous silica was expected to be an excellent prehospital hemostatic dressing for field first aid.

Abstract
Over the last few years, research on silica nanoparticles has rapidly increased. Particularly on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), as nanocarriers for the treatment of various diseases because of their physicochemical properties and biocompatibility. The use of MSNs combined with therapeutic agents can provide better encapsulation and effective delivery. MSNs as nanocarriers might also be a promising tool to lower the therapeutic dosage levels and thereby to reduce undesired side effects. Researchers have explored several routes to conjugate both imaging and therapeutic agents onto MSNs, thus expanding their potential as theranostic platforms, in order to allow for the early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. This review introduces a general overview of recent advances in the field of silica nanoparticles. In particular, the review tackles the fundamental aspects of silicate materials, including a historical presentation to new silicates and then focusing on the key parameters that govern the tailored synthesis of functional MSNs. Finally, the biomedical applications of MSNs are briefly revised, along with their biocompatibility, biodistribution and degradation. This review aims to provide the reader with the tools for a rational design of biocompatible MSNs for their application in the biomedical field. Particular attention is paid to the role that the synthesis conditions have on the physicochemical properties of the resulting MSNs, which, in turn, will determine their pharmacological behavior. Several recent examples are highlighted to stress the potential that MSNs hold as drug delivery systems, for biomedical imaging, as vaccine adjuvants and as theragnostic agents.

Abstract
Using in vitro and in vivo models, this study investigated the hemostatic potential to control bleeding of both unloaded gelatin-graphene oxide aerogels and the same loaded with proanthocyanidins (PAs) from Vitis vinifera grape skin extract. Our results showed that the physicochemical and mechanical properties of the aerogels were not affected by PA inclusion. In vitro studies showed that PA-loaded aerogels increased the surface charge, blood absorption capacity and cell viability compared to unloaded ones. These results are relevant for hemostasis, since a greater accumulation of blood cells on the aerogel surface favors aerogel–blood cell interactions. Although PAs alone were not able to promote hemostasis through extrinsic and intrinsic pathways, their incorporation into aerogels did not affect the in vitro hemostatic activity of these composites. In vivo studies demonstrated that both aerogels had significantly increased hemostatic performance compared to SpongostanTM and gauze sponge, and no noticeable effects of PA alone on the in vivo hemostatic performance of aerogels were observed; this may have been related to its poor diffusion from the aerogel matrix. Thus, PAs have a positive effect on hemostasis when incorporated into aerogels, although further studies should be conducted to elucidate the role of this extract in the different stages of hemostasis.

Abstract
Chitosan, which is derived from chitin, is the only known natural alkaline cationic polymer. Chitosan is a biological material that can significantly improve the living standard of the country. It has excellent properties such as good biodegradability, biocompatibility, and cell affinity, and has excellent biological activities such as antibacterial, antioxidant, and hemostasis. In recent years, the demand has increased significantly in many fields and has huge application potential. Due to the poor water solubility of chitosan, its wide application is limited. However, chemical modification of the chitosan matrix structure can improve its solubility and biological activity, thereby expanding its application range. The review covers the period from 1996 to 2022 and was elaborated by searching Google Scholar, PubMed, Elsevier, ACS publications, MDPI, Web of Science, Springer, and other databases. The various chemical modification methods of chitosan and its main activities and application research progress were reviewed. In general, the modification of chitosan and the application of its derivatives have had great progress, such as various reactions, optimization of conditions, new synthetic routes, and synthesis of various novel multifunctional chitosan derivatives. The chemical properties of modified chitosan are usually better than those of unmodified chitosan, so chitosan derivatives have been widely used and have more promising prospects. This paper aims to explore the latest progress in chitosan chemical modification technologies and analyze the application of chitosan and its derivatives in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and textiles, thus providing a basis for further development and utilization of chitosan.

Yan RR, Xue D, Su C, Xu Y, Gong JS, Liu YL, Jiang M, Geng Y, Lv GZ, Xu ZH, Shi JS. A keratin/chitosan sponge with excellent hemostatic performance for uncontrolled bleeding. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 218:112770. [PMID: 35988313 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.112770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Uncontrolled bleeding leads to a higher fatality rate in the situation of surgery, traffic accidents and warfare. Traditional hemostatic materials such as bandages are not ideal for uncontrolled or incompressible bleeding. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a new medical biomaterial with excellent rapid hemostatic effect. Keratin is a natural, biocompatible and biodegradable protein which contains amino acid sequences that induce cell adhesion. As a potential biomedical material, keratin has been developed and paid attention in tissue engineering fields such as promoting wound healing and nerve repair. Herein, a keratin/chitosan (K/C) sponge was prepared to achieve rapid hemostasis. The characterizations of K/C sponge were investigated, including SEM, TGA, liquid absorption and porosity, showing that the high porosity up to 90.12 ± 2.17 % resulted in an excellent blood absorption. The cytotoxicity test and implantation experiment proved that the K/C sponge was biocompatible and biodegradable. Moreover, the prepared K/C sponge showed better hemostatic performance than chitosan sponge (CS) and the commercially available gelatin sponge in both rat tail amputation and liver trauma bleeding models. Further experiments showed that K/C sponge plays a hemostatic role through the endogenous coagulation pathway, thus shortening the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) effectively. Therefore, this study provided a K/C sponge which can be served as a promising biomedical hemostatic material.

Electrospun kaolin-loaded chitosan/PEO nanofibers for rapid hemostasis and accelerated wound healing. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 217:998-1011.

Abstract
Development of chitosan-based hemostatic products and their application in wound healing has always been a research hotspot in the field of emergency treatment and biomedicine. In this study, the classic hemostatic chitosan and the most well-known inorganic hemostatic agent-kaolin were tried to combine to form a more excellent dressing. Together with the aid of non-toxic, harmless and good hydrophilic polyethylene oxide, chitosan/polyethylene oxide (PEO)/kaolin nanofiber membranes (CPKs) were prepared by electrospinning technology. Such membranes exhibited adjustable mechanical properties and good biocompatibility. Furthermore, a series of in vitro coagulation experiments proved that CPKs with 10 % ratio of kaolin (CPK10) has excellent hemostatic ability. Especially, in the whole blood coagulation time (WBCT) assay, the hemostatic time of CPK10 (43 ± 1.4 s) was significantly lower than that of chitosan/polyethylene oxide (CPK0) nanofiber membrane (61 ± 2.2 s) and QuikClot® Combat Gauze (55.7 ± 1.2 s). The further rat liver injury test reconfirmed that CPK10 can stop bleeding better and faster compared to other groups. In addition, CPKs could promote back wound healing in rats within 14 days without significant inflammatory response. This safe and effective hemostatic CPKs is expected to be a promising candidate hemostat in pre-hospital medical care.

Injectable shape memory hydroxyethyl cellulose/soy protein isolate based composite sponge with antibacterial property for rapid noncompressible hemorrhage and prevention of wound infection. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 217:367-380.

Abstract
Uncontrollable hemorrhage and subsequent wound infection are severe threats to life, especially for the deep noncompressible massive bleeding. However, traditional hemostatic materials are ineffective for extreme bleeding and subsequent wound infection. Here, we prepared an injectable shape memory hydroxyethyl cellulose/soy protein isolate based composite sponge (EHSS) for rapid noncompressible hemorrhage and prevention of wound infection. The nano silver (AgNPs)-loaded shape memory sponge (EHP@Ag) was fabricated by mussel-inspired polydopamine coating EHSS sponge, then reducing and immobilizing AgNPs in situ. The EHP@Ag sponges showed rapid blood-triggered shape recovery speed, which is beneficial for administering noncompressible hemorrhage. The results of the hemostatic experiment in vivo demonstrated that EHP@Ag sponge exhibited a desirable hemostasis effect (hemostasis time: 22.75 ± 3.86 s, blood loss: 285.25 ± 24.93 mg) compared to the commercial gelatin sponge (hemostasis time: 49.25 ± 3.30 s, blood loss: 755.50 ± 24.45 mg). Meanwhile, the EHP@Ag sponge has an efficient antibacterial property. Furthermore, the antibacterial experiment in vivo showed that the EHP@Ag sponges could kill bacteria effectively and reduce the bacteria-induced inflammatory response. In summary, the shape memory sponges can quickly control bleeding and avoid bacterial infection, which shows great potential for clinical application as a multifunctional hemostatic agent.

Abstract
Irregular hemorrhagic traumas always threaten the health of patients due to uncontrollable bleeding and wound infections. The traditional hemostatic materials show dissatisfactory hemostatic efficiency and antibacterial activity in solving these potential bleeding dangers. Herein, we proposed a kind of composites based on flexible wood membrane (FWM) loaded with chitosan/alginate derivative for accelerating rapid hemostasis and preventing infection. FWM was removed part of hemicellulose and lignin by using NaOH/Na2SO3 mixture to obtain excellent flexibility while retaining the original porous structure, followed by loading silver nanoparticles on the FWM surface to prepare AgNPs-FWM as an antibacterial bio-carrier. Then, AgNPs-FWM was coated with polyoxyethylene stearate-modified chitosan and multi-aldehyde sodium alginate to fabricate the composites of chitosan/alginate/AgNPs-FWM (CSA/AgNPs-FWM) using in-situ Schiff base reaction. Furthermore, in vitro and in vivo experiments showed that the CSA/AgNPs-FWM composites exhibited lower BCI value (2.6 ± 1.3 %), more rapid hemostasis (26 s) and lower blood loss (67.8 mg) than that of the traditional materials. The possible mechanism for the hemostasis process was not only the high blood absorption capacity, but also the synergistic interaction between hydrophobic alkane chains, amino groups, aldehydes, hydroxyl groups and blood cells. Moreover, CSA/AgNPs-FWM showed exceptional superiorities in mechanical properties and antibacterial activity, which endowed composites high potential in hemostasis application for irregular external wound.

Abstract
Unmanageable bleeding is one of the significant causes of mortality. Attaining rapid hemostasis ensures subject survivability as a first aid during combats, road accidents, surgeries that reduce mortality. Nanoporous fibers reinforced composite scaffold (NFRCS) developed by a simple hemostatic film-forming composition (HFFC) (as a continuous phase) can trigger and intensify hemostasis. NFRCS developed was based on the dragonfly wing structure's structural design. Dragonfly wing structure consists of cross-veins and longitudinal wing veins inter-connected with wing membrane to maintain the microstructural integrity. The HFFC uniformly surface coats the fibers with nano thickness film and interconnects the randomly distributed cotton gauge (Ct) (dispersed phase), resulting in the formation of a nanoporous structure. Integrating continuous and dispersed phases reduce the product cost by ten times that of marketed products. The modified NFRCS (tampon or wrist band) can be used for various biomedical applications. The in vivo studies conclude that the developed Cp NFRCS triggers and intensifies the coagulation process at the application site. The NFRCS could regulate the microenvironment and act at the cellular level due to its nanoporous structure, which resulted in better wound healing in the excision wound model.

Abstract
Cotton gauze is a widely used topical hemostatic material for bleeding control, but its high blood absorption capacity tends to cause extra blood loss. Therefore, development of rapid hemostatic cotton gauze with less blood loss is of great significance. Here, we develop an efficient hemostatic cotton gauze whose surface is slightly modified with a catechol compound which features a flexible long hydrophobic alkyl chain terminated with a catechol group. Its hemostatic performance in animal injuries is superior to standard cotton gauze and Combat GauzeTM. Its biosafety is similar to cotton gauze and rebleeding hardly occurs when the gauze is removed. Here, we show its hemostatic capability is attributable to the rapid formation of big and thick primary erythrocyte clots, due to its effective controlling of blood movement through blocking effect from tissue adhesion by catechol, blood wicking in cotton, and the hydrophobic effect from long alkyl chains.

Abstract
Tissue engineering (TE), a new paradigm in regenerative medicine, repairs and restores the diseased or damaged tissues and eliminates drawbacks associated with autografts and allografts. In this context, many biomaterials have been developed for regenerating tissues and are considered revolutionary in TE due to their flexibility, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. One such well-documented biomaterial is bioactive glasses (BGs), known for their osteoconductive and osteogenic potential and their abundant orthopedic and dental clinical applications. However, in the last few decades, the soft tissue regenerative potential of BGs has demonstrated great promise. Therefore, this review comprehensively covers the biological application of BGs in the repair and regeneration of tissues outside the skeleton system. BGs promote neovascularization, which is crucial to encourage host tissue integration with the implanted construct, making them suitable biomaterial scaffolds for TE. Moreover, they heal acute and chronic wounds and also have been reported to restore the injured superficial intestinal mucosa, aiding in gastroduodenal regeneration. In addition, BGs promote regeneration of the tissues with minimal renewal capacity like the heart and lungs. Besides, the peripheral nerve and musculoskeletal reparative properties of BGs are also reported. These results show promising soft tissue regenerative potential of BGs under preclinical settings without posing significant adverse effects. Albeit, there is limited bench-to-bedside clinical translation of elucidative research on BGs as they require rigorous pharmacological evaluations using standardized animal models for assessing biomolecular downstream pathways.

Abstract
Bioactive materials are a kind of materials with unique bioactivities, which can change the cellular behaviors and elicit biological responses from living tissues. Bioactive materials came into the spotlight in the late 1960s when the researchers found that the materials such as bioglass could react with surrounding bone tissue for bone regeneration. In the following decades, advances in nanotechnology brought the new development opportunities to bioactive nanomaterials. Bioactive nanomaterials are not a simple miniaturization of macroscopic materials. They exhibit unique bioactivities due to their nanoscale size effect, high specific surface area, and precise nanostructure, which can significantly influence the interactions with biological systems. Nowadays, bioactive nanomaterials have represented an important and exciting area of research. Current and future applications ensure that bioactive nanomaterials have a high academic and clinical importance. This review summaries the recent advances in the field of bioactive nanomaterials, and evaluate the influence factors of bioactivities. Then, a range of bioactive nanomaterials and their potential biomedical applications are discussed. Furthermore, the limitations, challenges, and future opportunities of bioactive nanomaterials are also discussed.

Abstract
Chitin/chitosan hemostatic materials have long been studied for uncontrolled hemorrhage, an urgent clinical problem due to severe blood-vessel damage or hemophilia. As one of the basic structural parameters of chitin, the degree of deacetylation (DD) significantly affects the material's physical, chemical, as well as biological properties. In this study, partially deacetylated chitins with a wide range of DD (23-81%) were prepared by homogeneous deacetylation, and sponges with these various chitins were fabricated by freeze-drying to study the effects of DD on their hemostatic properties. Among all sponge samples, the chitosan sponge with a DD of 48% showed the highest water absorption, whole blood adsorption, RBC adsorption rate, and the best hemostatic performance in an uncontrolled bleeding model of the rat femoral artery, demonstrating that a certain proportion of acetyl amino and amino groups could also activate the coagulation system and promote the adhesion of platelet and erythrocyte.

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.

Insight into Factors Influencing Wound Healing Using Phosphorylated Cellulose-Filled-Chitosan Nanocomposite Films. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:11386. [PMID: 34768816 PMCID: PMC8583768 DOI: 10.3390/ijms222111386] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Revised: 10/15/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Marine polysaccharides are believed to be promising wound-dressing nanomaterials because of their biocompatibility, antibacterial and hemostatic activity, and ability to easily shape into transparent films, hydrogels, and porous foams that can provide a moist micro-environment and adsorb exudates. Current efforts are firmly focused on the preparation of novel polysaccharide-derived nanomaterials functionalized with chemical objects to meet the mechanical and biological requirements of ideal wound healing systems. In this contribution, we investigated the characteristics of six different cellulose-filled chitosan transparent films as potential factors that could help to accelerate wound healing. Both microcrystalline and nano-sized cellulose, as well as native and phosphorylated cellulose, were used as fillers to simultaneously elucidate the roles of size and functionalization. The assessment of their influences on hemostatic properties indicated that the tested nanocomposites shorten clotting times by affecting both the extrinsic and intrinsic pathways of the blood coagulation system. We also showed that all biocomposites have antioxidant capacity. Moreover, the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of the materials against two cell lines, human BJ fibroblasts and human KERTr keratinocytes, was investigated. The nature of the cellulose used as a filler was found to influence their cytotoxicity at a relatively low level. Potential mechanisms of cytotoxicity were also investigated; only one (phosphorylated microcellulose-filled chitosan films) of the compounds tested produced reactive oxygen species (ROS) to a small extent, and some films reduced the level of ROS, probably due to their antioxidant properties. The transmembrane mitochondrial potential was very slightly lowered. These biocompatible films showed no genotoxicity, and very importantly for wound healing, most of them significantly accelerated migration of both fibroblasts and keratinocytes.

Abstract
In this study, an efficient composite hemostatic material (DA-diatom-T) was prepared, using a polydopamine layer as a linker to immobilize thrombin on the surface of diatom biosilica. DA-diatom-T retained the porous structure of the diatom with high water absorption capacity, which can absorb 31 times its own weight of water. The thrombin activity of DA-diatom-T was as high as 5.81 U mg-1 that could be maintained at 67% after 30 days at room temperature. DA-diatom-T exhibited non-toxicity to mouse fibroblast cell lines, favorable hemocompatibility and fast procoagulant ability. DA-diatom-T could promote the initiation of the coagulation process and increase platelet activity and blood clot strength to form a physical barrier at the wound. In an in vivo study, DA-diatom-T could significantly reduce the clotting time and reduce the bleeding volume. The above results showed that DA-diatom-T had potential as a new hemostatic material.

Abstract
Rapid control of bleeding is of great significance in military trauma and traffic accidents. In this study, alkylated chitosan (AC) and diatom biosilica (DB) were combined to develop a safe and effective hemostatic composite sponge (AC-DB sponge) for hemorrhage control. Due to the procoagulant chemical structure of AC-DB sponge, it exhibited rapid hemostatic ability in vitro (clotting time was shortened by 78% than that of control group), with favorable biocompatibility (hemolysis ratio < 5%, no cytotoxicity). The strong interface effect between AC-DB sponge and blood induced the erythrocyte and platelets activation, deformation and aggregation, intrinsic coagulation pathway activation, resulting in significant coagulation acceleration. AC-DB sponge had excellent performance in in vivo assessments with shortest clotting time (106.2 s) and minimal blood loss (328.5 mg). All above results proved that AC-DB sponge had great potential to be a safe and rapid hemostatic material.

Abstract
Severe bleeding in perforating and inflected wounds with forky cavities or fine voids encountered during prehospital treatments and surgical procedures is a complex challenge. Therefore, we present a novel hemostatic strategy based on magnetic field-mediated guidance. The biphasic Janus magnetic particle (MSS@Fe2O3-T) comprised aggregates of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (Fe2O3 NPs) as the motion actuator, negatively modified microporous starch (MSS) as the base hemostatic substrate, and thrombin as the loaded hemostatic drug. Before application, the particles were first wrapped using NaHCO3 and then doped with protonated tranexamic acid (TXA-NH3+), which ensured their high self-dispersibility in liquids. During application, the particles promptly self-diffused in blood by bubble propulsion and travelled to deep bleeding sites against reverse rushing blood flow under magnetic guidance. In vivo tests confirmed the superior hemostatic performance of the particles in perforating and inflected wounds (“V”-shaped femoral artery and “J”-shaped liver bleeding models). The present strategy, for the first time, extends the range of magnetically guided drug carriers to address the challenges in the hemorrhage control of perforating and inflected wounds. A new Janus hemostat was developed for treating severe bleeding. The “J” shape bleeding model was proposed for hemostatic test. Magnetic field-mediated driving capacity was employed for hemostasis. Explosive self-dispersibility endowed to the hemostat largely enhanced the bleeding control capacity.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to elaborate a hydrogel constituted by carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC), hyaluronic acid (HA) and silver (Ag) and to evaluate its healing effect on partial-thickness burn wounds experimentally induced in rats. METHODS CMC was obtained by chitosan reacting with monochloroacetic acid. The carboxymethylation was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Scanning electron microscopy was used to determine the morphologicalcharacteristics of chitosan and CMC. After the experimental burn wound induction, the animals (n = 126) were treated with different CMC formulations, had their occlusive dressings changed daily and were followed through 7, 14 and 30 days. Morphometric, macroscopic and microscopic aspects and collagen quantification were evaluated. RESULTS Significative wound contraction, granulation tissue formation, inflammatory infiltration and collagen fibers deposit throughout different phases of the healing process were observed in the CMC hydrogels treated groups. CONCLUSIONS The results showed that, in the initial phase of the healing process, the most adequate product was the CMC/HA/Ag association, while in the other phases the CMC/HA association was the best one to promote the healing of burn wounds.

Abstract
Serial hemostatic sponges consisting of polysaccharides-modified chitosan foam sponges were prepared by Schiff base crosslinking reaction between the deacetylated chitosan and oxidized dialdehyde cellulose. Such composite foam sponges were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy to confirm their morphology and compositions. Then the coagulation process was evaluated in vitro by thrombus elasticity meters. Furthermore, the hemostasis experiments on mouse tail vein and rabbit femoral artery were also performed in vivo. The results strongly indicated that such synergistic cellulose-modified chitosan foam sponges showed comprehensively excellent water-absorbing quality, improved mechanical performance, low hemolysis rates, benign cytotoxicity, good resilience ability after repeated compression, and superior hemostasis capability both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, the hemostatic mechanism is via adhering/activating the red blood cell/platelet to form robust blood clots through the endogenous coagulation pathway, which serves as a good candidate for emergency trauma treatment in daily civilian and military hemostasis.

Abstract
It is important to control bleeding and prevent bacterial infection for the wound people. The effective way is to fabricate an asymmetric Janus matrial for realizing rapid hemostasis and promoting wound healing. Herein, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) modified by tannic acid (TA), silver nanoparticles, and calcium ions (Ca-TA-MSN@Ag) with Janus structure were prepared via redox and coordination reactions. These anisotropic snowman-like particles possess obvious chemical compartition, in which silver nanoparticles are embedding in large MSN body. During blood coagulation, TA with catechol structure acts as a vasoconstrictor. Then, Ca-TA-MSN@Ag with high specific surface area (510.62 m2·g-1) and large pore volume (0.48 m3·g-1) induces red blood cell aggregation to form three-dimensional network structure with fibrin. Additionally, calcium ions as clotting factor IV and negative charge of Ca-TA-MSN@Ag accelerate coagulation cascade reaction. These three synergistic effects on animal model showed that hemostatic time of Ca-TA-MSN@Ag was shortened by nearly 50% compared to that of MSN. Moreover, Ca-TA-MSN@Ag possessed good blood compatibility, biocompatibility and antibacterial activity (~99%) against E. coli and S. aureus. The anisotropic Janus particles of Ca-TA-MSN@Ag with hemostatic performance and antibacterial activity will be a promising biomaterial for designing wound dressings in clinical application.

Abstract
It is increasingly essential to develop excellent materials for rapid hemorrhage control. Our previous study showed that centric diatoms such as frustules were superior to QuikClot® in hemostasis, however, related studies in pennate diatoms are still scarce. The morphological and physicochemical properties of pennate diatoms are quite different from those of centric diatoms, meaning that significant differences may also be observed from their hemostatic effects. Thus, the hemostasis effects of four pennate diatom frustules (Cocconeiopsis orthoneoides, Navicula avium, Navicula sp., and Pleurosigma indicum) were investigated in this study. Herein, all diatom frustules demonstrated outstanding hemostasis performance. For example, the in vitro coagulation time of C. orthoneoides (100.33 ± 9.5 s) was 32.4% lower than that of QuikClot®. Meanwhile, the hemostatic times of C. orthoneoides in the rat tail amputation and femoral artery models were 82 s and 180 s, respectively, only around one-half and one-third of the QuikClot® values. Moreover, the blood loss amounts of C. orthoneoides in the rat tail amputation and femoral artery model were 73.4% and 61% less than that of QuikClot®. Besides that, diatom frustules also exhibited favorable biocompatibility (hemolysis ratio <5%, MEFs cell viabilities >80%, and no inflammation). To find out the key factors underlying the hemostatic effect of frustules, Pearson correlation analysis was further performed in this study. The results demonstrated that the coagulation reaction time (R) was negatively correlated with the specific surface area and liquid absorbability but positively with the diatom pore diameter. The angle α, indicating the clot formation rate, was negative to the diatom size and pore diameter. Additionally, MA also showed a negative correlation with the BET value. This study can enrich our knowledge about the application potential of diatoms in the field of bleeding control and is helpful in deepening our understanding about the hemostatic mechanism of frustules.

Abstract
Uncontrolled hemorrhage is the main reason of possible preventable death after accidental injury. It is necessary to develop a hemostatic agent with rapid hemostatic performance and good biocompatibility. In this study, a chitosan/diatom-biosilica-based aerogel is developed using dopamine as cross-linker by simple alkaline precipitation and tert-butyl alcohol replacement. The chitosan/diatom-biosilica aerogel exhibits favorable biocompatibility and multiscale hierarchical porous structure (from nanometer to micrometer), which can be controlled by the concentration of tert-butyl alcohol. The displacement of tert-butyl alcohol can keep the porosity of diatom-biosilica in aerogel and give it large surface with efficient water absorption ratio. 30% tert-butyl alcohol replacement of aerogel possesses the largest surface area (74.441 m2 g-1 ), water absorption capacity (316.83 ± 2.04%), and excellent hemostatic performance in vitro blood coagulation (≈70 s). Furthermore, this aerogel exhibits the shortest clotting time and lowest blood loss in rat hemorrhage model. The strong interface effect between aerogel and blood is able to promote erythrocytes aggregation, platelets adhesion, and activation, as well as, activate the intrinsic coagulation pathway to accelerate blood coagulation. All the above results demonstrate that chitosan/diatom-biosilica aerogel has great potential to be a safe and rapid hemostatic material.

Abstract
The currently used hemostatic agents are highly effective in stopping hemorrhages but have a limited role in the modulation of the wound-healing environment. Herein, we propose an intrinsically bioactive hemostatic cryogel based on platelet lysate (PL) and aldehyde-functionalized cellulose nanocrystals (a-CNCs). PL has attracted great attention as an inexpensive milieu of therapeutically relevant proteins; however, its application as a hemostatic agent exhibits serious constraints (e.g., structural integrity and short shelf-life). The incorporation of a-CNCs reinforced the low-strength PL matrix by covalent cross-linking its amine groups that exhibit an elastic interconnected porous network after full cryogelation. Upon blood immersion, the PL-CNC cryogels absorbed higher volumes of blood at a faster rate than commercial hemostatic porcine gelatin sponges. Simultaneously, the cryogels released biomolecules that increased stem cell proliferation, metabolic activity, and migration as well as downregulated the expression of markers of the fibrinolytic process. In an in vivo liver defect model, PL-CNC cryogels showed similar hemostatic performance in comparison with gelatin sponges and normal material-induced tissue response upon subcutaneous implantation. Overall, owing to their structure and bioactive composition, the proposed PL-CNC cryogels provide an alternative off-the-shelf hemostatic and antibacterial biomaterial with the potential to deliver therapeutically relevant proteins in situ.

Abstract
Here, a simple and efficient strategy to produce porous and hydrophilic chitosan/cellulose sponge using surfactant and pore-forming agent is demonstrated. The preparation of composite sponge by LiOH/KOH/urea solvent system effectively solve the problems of uneven distribution of chitosan, poor softness and acid residue caused by soaking in chitosan acid solution. The obtained chitosan/cellulose sponges exhibit high water absorption capacity and rapid shape recoverability, as well as good mechanical properties. Effective inhibitory on Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are particularly proved. Besides, the result of the dynamic whole blood clotting time indicated that the chitosan/cellulose composite sponge has better coagulation ability than those of traditional gauze and gelatin sponge. Animal experiment further showed that rapid hemostasis within 34 s can be reached with the composite sponge. Better biocompatibility of the composite sponge is proved by the results of hemocompatibility and cytotoxicity, indicating an excellent candidate for rapid hemostasis in massive haemorrhage.

Abstract
The development of a hemostatic sponge that can be used for treating both arterial hemorrhage and non-compressible bleeding remains a challenge. In this work, we propose the fabrication of a robust hemostatic sponge by a hydrogen bond strengthening and in situ bubble expanding strategy in thermo-initiation polymerization. A thickening agent, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), is incorporated into a hydrogen bonding N-acryloyl-2-glycine (ACG) monomer and an initiator, and vortexing generates air bubbles in the viscous liquid. Heating initiates fast polymerization, and meanwhile aids in expanding of bubbles, which results in the fixation of bubbles throughout the network, and the formation of porous hydrogels. Further lyophilization of the foaming hydrogels leads to the final generation of PACG/CMC sponges with robust compressive strengths due to the hydrogen bonding interactions of PACG. PACG/CMC sponges are shown to demonstrate a tunable liquid absorption ability, in vitro hemostatic ability, better hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. In a rat liver injury model and a femoral artery injury model, the PACG/CMC sponge can significantly reduce the bleeding time and blood loss compared with gauze and commercial gelatin sponge because of the high blood absorption ability and effective concentration of blood coagulation factors. This PACG sponge holds promising potential as a hemostatic agent applicable in an emergency.

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.
