The invention provides a wound dressing made by an ex vivo formed combination of fibrinogen and/or fibrin containing-liquid formulation and an oxidized cellulose (OC) backing; and use thereof.

The present chitosan-based superfine fiber invention relates to compositions, formulations, and processes that result in numerous significant advantages for the production and use of superfine fiber bioactive matrices in biomedical applications. The present invention relates to superfine, chitosan-based fibers, wherein the chitosan-based fibers have a percentage chitosan content of at least about 20% w/w, and highly conformable and compliant matrices comprising such fibers, processes for their production, and related formulations. The superfine chitosan-based fibers of the invention preferably include microfibers with diameter less than or equal to about 10 microns and micron and submicron fibers that are about 2 microns and less.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of hemostatic materials, and specifically relates to a degradable hemostatic sponge and a preparation method and use thereof, and a degradable drug-loaded hemostatic sponge. The degradable hemostatic sponge provided by the present disclosure is prepared from raw materials including a crosslinking-modified starch and a cellulose through freeze-drying, where a mass ratio of the crosslinking-modified starch to the cellulose is (0.2-5):1. The degradable hemostatic sponge provided by the present disclosure has a high water-absorbing rate and a large water-absorbing capacity, shows a high support strength and a long support time after water absorption, and is made from plant-derived raw materials and thus may be completely biodegraded. The degradable drug-loaded starch hemostatic sponge provided by the present disclosure has a drug-loaded coating attached to a surface of the sponge, where the drug is slowly released while a support is maintained.

A wound care product having buffer substances and a wound cover, and a method for treatment of a wound therewith. The wound cover has a foam. The pH value of the buffer solution obtained when the buffer substances are dissolved in demineralized water at 37° C. is between 3 and 7.

Methods and materials used for production of constructs having a porous open or semi-open celled structure. Constructs may include a porous matrix as a base and a biocompatible conformal coating thereon.

A composite material is formed by combining an expandable polymer having a charge with another polymer having an opposite charge to produce. In particular, the composite material can be prepared by combining the polymers with a medium such as and water, and expanding the mixture using a treatment that expands the mixture to produce, for example, insoluble porous foam-like composites.

The present invention relates to novel formulations comprising a dry powder fibrin sealant comprised of a mixture of fibrinogen and/or thrombin, for use in the treatment of wounds or injuries, in particular for use as a topical hemostatic composition or for surgical intervention.

Provided herein are methods for making foam materials and foam material products having a polyurethane foam matrix defining a plurality of pores, a hydrophilic agent retained within at least a portion of the pores for improving an absorption of the foam material, a salt retained within at least a portion of the pores in an amount sufficient to render the foam material isotonic, a surfactant retained within at least a portion of the pores in an amount sufficient to be released upon contact with a moist surface. Also provided herein are methods for making a multilayer foam by casting a second foam layer on a first foam layer substrate and compressing the second foam layer before the second layer is fully cured to form an interface layer in situ.

A polymer nanofiber scaffold includes a plurality of melt extruded nanofibers that are chemically modified to append surface functionality to the nanofibers.
