Biogel of herbal ingredients tightens the wound in seconds
Any injury can cause bleeding and it is critical. New development Brooklyn, laboratory of biotechnology, VetiGel, when applied to the skin or damaged soft tissue is able to stop bleeding almost instantly. Currently undergoing testing on animals in veterinary clinics.
The gel tightens open wounds and stops bleeding in 20 seconds. At first glance, it seems similar to other hemostatic tools available on the market — but its effect goes beyond superficial scratches and works with deep wounds of the skin and organs. Imagine a surgeon having at hand a tool that allows you to quickly cover the damaged organ while minimizing blood loss — or a police officer, who is able to instantly stop bleeding from gunshot wounds.
The first published version of VetiGel immediately won the highest award at the competition NYU Time Warner Cable Inno in 2011.
The Creator of the gel and founder of Brooklyn laboratory Biotech Suneris, Joe Landolina describes VetiGel as the LEGO bricks for the body. Building blocks in this case are polymers based on the components derived from the cell walls of plants, which cause blood to clot in seconds.
These seconds can sometimes mean the difference between life and death. Existing drugs can stop the bleeding in 5-10 minutes — but VetiGel able to do it in less than one minute, giving victims a much better chance at life.
VetiGel is not yet ready for use by the people, as it requires additional testing and refinement before it becomes a finished product approved by the FDA. However, he has already passed the test in veterinary clinics, where it is used to stop bleeding during operations on animals.
