Assembly of Clay Nanotubes on Cotton Fibers Mediated by Biopolymer for Robust and High?Performance Hemostatic Dressing (Adv. Healthcare Mater. 1/2023)

Clay-Based Robust Hemostats In article 2202265 by Mingxian Liu, Yuri Lvov, and co-workers, an efficient clay hemostat of halloysite nanotubes is tightly assembled onto cotton fibers capillaries mediated a biopolymer alginate with Ca2+ crosslinking. This dressing maintains high clotting activity after washing only few residuals in the wound. strategy balances robustness, biosafety, effectiveness composite wound dressing.
