Abstract
experiments further demonstrated CaOMS could maintain the weight loss caused by blood loss from wounds and has excellent hemostatic (65 s) and wound healing properties by promoting the secretion of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression. The advantages of CaOMS, including rapid and effective hemostasis, effective wound healing, low cost, easy usage, and adaptability to fit various wound shapes, make it a promising biomaterial for achieving fast hemostasis and wound healing.
