Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Ultrastructural and morphological analyses of a novel hemostatic agent, Ankaferd Blood Stopper (ABS), in comparison to its in vitro and in vivo hemostatic effects were investigated. High-resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images accompanied with morphological analysis after topical application of ABS revealed a very rapid (<1 second) protein network formation within concurrent vital erythroid aggregation covering the classical coagulation cascade. Histopathological examination revealed similar in vivo ABS-induced hemostatic network at the porcine hepatic tissue injury model. Instantaneous control of bleeding was achieved in human surgery-induced dental tissue injury associated with primary and secondary hemostatic abnormalities. Ankaferd Blood Stopper could hold a great premise for clinical management of surgery bleedings as well as immediate cessation of bleeding on external injuries based on upcoming clinical trials.
