Background: Haemostyptic materials initiate and hasten blood clotting at the site of their application. The properties of haemostyptic materials are used for treatment of capillary and parenchymatous haemorrhage along with surgical treatment. Celluloses one of the biopolymers studied for a long time, suitable because of its biocompatibility and non-toxicity.
Methods And Results: In the submitted study the authors used microdispersed calcium-sodium salt of oxidized cellulose which is formed by oxidation of cellulose in position C6 (patent Alltracel Pharmaceuticals). The authors investigated the effect of oxidized cellulose on fibrin formation and platelets. Using the optic method of the surface plasmon resonance they investigated the initial stage of interaction between fibrinogen and oxidized cellulose. Oxidized cellulose retards and reduces the interaction of the immobilized fibrin monomer with fibrinogen. Fibrin formation was investigated spectrophotometrically at 350 nm. In the presence of cellulose the period of formation of fibrin gel was prolonged and its turbidity increased, depending on the concentration of the cellulose used. The platelet activation by cellulose was assessed by measuring the released serotonin. For the activation of platelets by cellulose the presence of plasma is necessary, rinsed platelets were not activated by cellulose. It was revealed that direct, interaction of rinsed platelets or fibrinogen with cellulose plays a secondary role.
Conclusions: These data and the retarded activation of platelets in plasma with factor XII deficiency indicate that due to negatively charged oxidized cellulose probably activation of the contact coagulation system occurs and this leads to the activation of platelets and fibrin formation.

Articular cartilage has a limited self-healing capacity, leading to joint degeneration and osteoarthritis over time. Therefore, bioactive scaffolds are gaining attention as a promising approach to regenerating and repairing damaged articular cartilage through tissue engineering. In this study, we reported on a novel 3D bio-printed proteinaceous bioactive scaffolds combined with natural porcine cancellous bone dECM, tempo-oxidized cellulose nanofiber (TOCN), and alginate carriers for TGF-β1, FGF-18, and ADSCs to repair cartilage defects.

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have emerged as promising, sustainable materials, with applications in sensors, coatings, pharmaceuticals, and composites. Their modification with block copolymers such as PEO-PPO-PEO triblock copolymers of the Pluronic family has been attempted many times in the literature, with claims that such modification would happen by an anchor(PEO)-buoy(PPO)-anchor(PEO) mechanism. However, there is much disagreement in the literature on this.

The conventional hydrothermal synthesis and inherent hysteresis behavior limited the application of MOFs owing to the low kinetic efficiency in dynamic molecular adsorption. Herein, we developed an in-situ nucleation strategy for the preparation of MIL-100-Fe and immobilized it with hierarchy porous scaffold of TEMPO oxidized cellulose nanofiber (TCNF) sponge in the absence of additional organic solvent during fabrication under ambient conditions. The newly recognized mechanisms of gradient molecular transfer were proposed to illustrate the comprehensive DCF adsorption process from solution to micropores of MIL-100-Fe at molecule level triggered by the stray capacitance, varied Laplace pressure, size exclusion and cellulosic labyrinth.

Aims: This study compared the hemostatic effects and complications of oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) and topical TXA in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), thus providing a reference for the use of ORC as an alternative hemostatic agent to TXA in TKA.
Methods: A total of 105 patients were included in this study and randomized into blank control, ORC, and TXA groups. The primary outcomes were total blood loss, hemoglobin drop (Hb drop), transfusion rates, and incidence of thrombosis.
