Abstract

investigation of rat skin incision and gastrointestinal perforation models validates that the SF/PEG/TA powder promotes wound healing and tissue regeneration. Taken together, compared to existing clinical hemostatic powders, the proposed SF/PEG/TA powder with superior wound treatment capabilities has high potential for clinical hemostasis and emergency rescue.
