Clotting Mimicry from Robust Hemostatic Bandages Based on Self-Assembling Peptides

Clotting Mimicry from Robust Hemostatic Bandages Based on Self-Assembling Peptides

Uncontrolled bleeding from traumatic wounds is a major factor in deaths resulting from military conflict, accidents, disasters and crime. Self-assembling peptide nanofibers have shown superior hemostatic activity, and herein, we elucidate their mechanism by visualizing the formation of nanofiber-bas...
