The present invention relates to a haemostatic powder comprising at least 10 wt. % of particle agglomerates, said particle agglomerates having a diameter in the range of 1-500 μm and comprising: electrophilic polyoxazoline particles containing electrophilic polyoxazoline carrying at least 3 reactive electrophilic groups that are capable of reacting with amine groups in blood under the formation of a covalent bond; and nucleophilic polymer particles containing a water-soluble nucleophilic polymer carrying at least 3 reactive nucleophilic groups that, in the presence of water, are capable of reacting with the reactive electrophilic groups of the electrophilic polyoxazoline under the formation of a covalent bond between the electrophilic polyoxazoline and the nucleophilic polymer.

When applied to a bleeding site, the haemostatic powder of the present invention turns into a gel while at the same time binding to proteins present in the blood and on the surrounding tissue.

A dressing for treating a wound on a digit includes a digit contact layer configured to substantially prevent adherence of the dressing to the wound and an antimicrobial layer coupled to a wound-facing side of the digit contact layer. The antimicrobial layer includes an antimicrobial substance. A first roll is coupled to a non-wound-facing side of the digit contact layer and unrollable to cover the digit, the digit contact layer, and the antimicrobial layer and a second roll is coupled to the first roll and unrollable to cover the first roll, the digit, the digit contact layer, and the antimicrobial layer.

A tackifier composition comprising at least one thermoplastic hydrocarbon resin and an antioxidant composition is provided; wherein a portion of the volatile organic compounds in the thermoplastic hydrocarbon resin has been removed; wherein the antioxidant composition comprises at least one primary antioxidant and at least one secondary antioxidant; and wherein the levels of individual volatile organic compound monitored in the tackifier composition are less than about 0.5 ppm as measured by GC/MS headspace analysis. Processes for producing the tackifier composition are also provided as well as adhesives comprising the tackifier compositions.

The present disclosure provides a method for preparing a hydrogel composition with thermos-sensitive and ionic reversible properties and the hydrogel composition prepared by the method. Related application products of the hydrogel composition of the present disclosure include wound dressings, drug carriers, three-dimensional cellular scaffolds, soluble microspheres, and cell capture and release systems, wherein the hydrogel composition with thermos-sensitive and ionic reversible properties has good in vitro and in vivo stability and high biocompatibility, and is non-toxic. The hydrogel composition can be removed and replaced by washing with metal chelating aqueous solution at low temperature.

The present disclosure relates to absorbent articles comprising a nonwoven material, the nonwoven material comprising PET resin having less than 150 ppm of antimony. One or more layers of cover materials are covering the nonwoven material both on the wearer-facing surface and on the garment-facing surface, such that the nonwoven material does not form a wearer-facing or garment-facing surface of the absorbent article.

Disclosed herein are matrices, compositions and methods of making matrices. The matrix comprises a biomolecule and the matrix is a dried, cross-linked foam. The matrix is not lyophilized. The method comprises foaming the composition, crosslinking the composition and drying the composition. Matrices disclosed herein are useful as wound dressings and treating wounds.

A biodegradable, non-pressure compression leg wrap for cattle suffering lameness from for example digital dermatitis with disintegration time controlled by the ratio of polyvinyl alcohol to copolymer starch or cellulose in the wrap composition.
