Severe hemorrhage has posed a serious threat to the health and even life of civilian and
military populations and brought serious economic losses. Consequently, it is imperative to …

The development of materials that effectively stop bleeding and prevent wound adhesion is
essential in both military and medical fields. However, traditional hemostasis methods, such …

Polyphosphate is an inorganic polymer that can potentiate several interactions in the blood
coagulation system. Blood platelets contain polyphosphate, and the secretion of platelet …

Contact activation is the surface-induced conversion of factor XII (FXII) zymogen to the
serine protease FXIIa. Blood-circulating FXII binds to negatively charged surfaces and this …

This illustrated review focuses on polyphosphate as a potent modulator of the plasma
clotting cascade, with possible roles in hemostasis, thrombosis, and inflammation …

This work describes a hemostatic membrane system (or surface coating) based on spray-
assisted layer-by-layer electrostatic assemblies of oppositely charged polyphosphate …

Wound healing is a complex biological process involving distinct phases of hemostasis,
immune response, and inflammatory events, regulated cellular proliferation, and matrix …

We have developed a new hydrogel hemostat composed of hyaluronan (HA) conjugated
with inorganic polyphosphate (PolyP). A hemostatic hydrogel, HAX-PolyP, was formed …

The ability to examine the vibrational spectra of liquids with nanometer spatial resolution will
greatly expand the potential to study liquids and liquid interfaces. In fact, the fundamental …

Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening allergic reaction. It is triggered by the release of pro-
inflammatory cytokines and mediators from mast cells and basophils in response to …
