BloodSTOP® iX is a highly adhesive biocompatible, etherized, oxidized, regenerated natural cellulose. This hemostatic matrix rapidly absorbs blood and transforms into a highly adhesive gel to seal the wound with a protective layer, binds and activates platelets, provides support for clot formation, and creates an environment for wound healing.

BloodSTOP® iX Advanced Hemostat with WoundHEAL® is a clinically proven, research-based hemostatic dressing and wound healing matrix that provides rapid hemorrhage control, dramatically reducing blood loss. It is an all-natural, plant-based, biocompatible, water soluble, etherified carboxymethyl cellulose (ECMC) matrix that utilizes patented technology to achieve superior hemostasis and fast wound healing.

Well-established as an ideal hemostatic dressing, BloodSTOP iX has demonstrated in an animal model the ability to modulate endogenous tissue cytokines, as well as to bind to cellular receptors on cell membranes and thereby activating Wnt/Frizzled cellular signaling. This leads to activation of endogenous stem cells and cytokines, which brings about angiogenesis and tissue regeneration. Additionally, it has shown to decrease inflammatory cytokines, thereby reducing the infection and inflammation risk, and promoting fast wound healing.
