Nano cellulose-laden alginate/chitosan sponge with enhanced biological and hemostatic behavior

초록

Present study describes about hybrid hemostat developed with alginate (Alg), chitosan (Chito) and TEMPO-oxidized nanofibrillar cellulose (TOCNF) via lyophilization. All samples were analyzed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to determine their microstructure, size, and distribution of pores. Cell viability and proliferation of the scaffolds tested using fibroblast type L929 cells, showed it to be an excellent medium for cell generation. Blood coagulation started in similar to 7.5 min, and most of the fibrin network formation took place in the Alg-Chito-TOCNF sponge, making it a suitable hemostatic material.
