BLOODSTOP® IX is a new-generation hemostat matrix made from water-soluble, oxidized-etherified regenerated cellulose. It is used by medical professionals and hospitals. It is a fully biocompatible, nonirritating, woven matrix of fibers that contain natural plant components.
It adheres to any wound and, on contact with blood, initiates blood coagulation, stops bleeding fast, and forms a protective layer that creates an optimal environment for wound healing. Its water solubility allows for easy removal through rinsing without disruption of the clotted wound surface. BloodSTOP® iX exerts its pro-coagulant activity by activating the intrinsic coagulation pathway, accelerating clot formation. http://www.lifescienceplus.com/bloodstop-ix. (877) 587-5433.
