Resumo
Although there is a plethora of 245 different zeolites with different frameworks with unique
and unusual topologies of channels and cavities with large applications in the field of
industrial catalysis [1], few of them have found systematic biomedical applications,
especially for the purpose of hemorrhage control. Hemostasis is a complex biochemical
process in which the assembly of substrates, enzymes, protein cofactors and calcium ions on a
phospholipid surface accelerates the rate of coagulation. Several inorganic solid matrices
have been employed as topic hemostatic agents, and among them zeolites [2]. However, the
synthesis of enriched calcium zeolites for the purpose of hemorrhage control and using as
raw materials chicken eggshell biomass is an unexplored field of research. We report the
data of the synthesis of four calcium zeolites using CaCO3 derivated from chicken eggshell.
Thromboelastographic results using the pristine calcium enriched zeolites show that they
were able to promote a faster clot formation and a higher maximum clot strength than those
of the commercial topical hemostatic agent QuikClot.
