Abstract
A haemostatic composition comprising a non-acidic meshed network of fibrous material, wherein the network comprises fibres with a mean diameter (Dso) no greater than 1 μm, an aspect ratio (mean fibre length/mean fibre diameter) of at least 100, and wherein said meshed network has a specific surface area of at least 1O m2/g, and a gel point no greater than 3 g/L.
Claims20
A haemostatic composition comprising a non-acidic meshed network of fibrous material, wherein the network comprises fibres with a mean diameter (D50) no greater than 1 μm, an aspect ratio (mean fibre length/mean fibre diameter) of at least 100, and wherein said meshed network has a specific surface area of at least 10 m2/g, and a gel point no greater than 3 g/L.
A haemostatic composition comprising a non-oxidised meshed network of cellulose fibres, said cellulose fibres having a mean diameter (D50) less than 100 nm, an aspect ratio (mean fibre length/mean fibre diameter) of at least 120, and wherein said meshed network has a specific surface area of at least 13 m2/g, and a gel point no greater than 1.5 g/L.
A haemostatic composition comprising a non-oxidised meshed network of chitin fibres, said chitin fibres having a mean diameter (D50) less than 100 nm, an aspect ratio (mean fibre length mean fibre diameter) of at least 100, and wherein said meshed network has a specific surface area of at least 13m2/g, and a gel point no greater than 1.5 g/L.
