ABSTRACT
We have investigated the covalent conjugation of aminated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTNH2)s with Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (ORC) in order to enhance the hemostatic effect. The MWCNT-NH2s were prepared by functionalization of pristine MWCNTs (pMWCNTs) using amine groups. Neat ORC gauze and MWCNT-NH2s were reacted using glutamic acid as cross linking bridge. We investigated an amination of pMWCNTs as well as the dispersion of MWCNT-NH2s in the ORC gauze as matrix and their interfacial interactions by SEM and FT-IR. The results revealed that relatively strong interaction exists between aminated MWCNTs and the ORC macromolecules. The hydrophilicity test results in the significant increment of water uptake of MWCNT-NH2s/ORC composites with increasing the concentration of MWCNT-NH2s in composite. The in-vitro procoagulation test shows that the MWCNT-NH2s/ORC gauzes have significant procoagulant activity. The hemostatic evaluation of MWCNT-NH2s/ORC composites on rabbits shows that the aminated MWCNTs increase the rate of blood stopping and hence they decrease the blood loosing from injured sites. Hemostatic evaluation indicates that the MWCNT-NH2s/ORC gauze has a valuable hemostatic performance. The products of platelets release reaction, activated platelets glycoprotein and activated clotting enzymes were increased simultaneously. The mechanism of the hemostasis for MWCNT-NH2s/ORC gauze is discussed.
