Scientists Develop Spray-On Powder That Instantly Seals Life-Threatening Wounds

KAIST scientists have developed a spray-on powder hemostat that instantly seals life-threatening wounds in one second, significantly improving survival in combat and emergency medicine. The AGCL powder, composed of biocompatible natural materials, forms a strong hydrogel barrier when sprayed onto a wound, offering superior sealing performance and tissue regeneration effects. It is stable, easy to store, and effective in harsh environments, making it a potential breakthrough for emergency treatment on the battlefield and in disaster zones.
