Abstract: A hemostatic textile material to stop bleeding comprising a dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) carrier wherein the degree of oxidation of the dialdehyde cellulose varies from about 1.5% to 12%; and a blood coagulation factor selected from the group consisting of chitosan and gelatin; the blood coagulation factor being chemically immobilized thereon; and further optionally comprising a bacteriolytic agent selected from the group consisting of a lysozyme enzyme, silver nitrate, and chlorhexidine; and further optionally comprising a selected component that prevents hemolysis, the component selected from the group consisting of tranexamic acid or ?-aminocaproic acid chemically immobilized thereon.

Abstract: There is provided a photo-magnetic radiation device, including a radiation emitting head having a low level laser light source for emitting light through a lightguide, a magnet producing a magnetic field in the vicinity of the emitting head, a visible light emitter and one infrared light source located inside the emitting head, to emit visible and infrared lights together with the laser light and magnetic field. The device further includes a power source and a controller for selectively activating lights in the emitting head.
