Abstract:

Uncontrollable hemorrhage induced by war or surgery is closely related to pain and high risk of death. Therefore, a timely and effective hemostatic material is highly required for life-threatening traumatic bleeding. However, current hemostatic materials still have various defects and side effects such as slow hemostasis and secondary infection. Herein, gelatin-dopamine-lysine (GDL) and oxidized dextran (ODE) were used to prepare sponge-like hemostasis materials through lyophilization. The results show that GDL/ODE is able to integrate with biological tissue and form physical barriers, which stops bleeding after 60 s of application. GDL/ODE composites show good cyto/hemo-compatibility and highly porous microscopic morphology and water absorption ratio. These results suggest that the developed GDL/ODE sponge is a promising multifunctional hemostasis material for biomedical fields.
