How Do Amphiphilic Biopolymers Gel Blood? An Investigation Using Optical Microscopy
Amphiphilic biopolymers such as hydrophobically modified chitosan (hmC) have been shown to convert liquid blood into elastic gels. This interesting property could make hmC useful as a hemostatic agent in treating severe bleeding. The mechanism for blood gelling by hmC is believed to involve polymer-...
