Abstract: Colloidal food base compositions comprising fungal mycelial biomass are disclosed, as are methods of making such colloidal food base compositions. The fungal mycelial biomass may stabilize the colloid and/or act as a supplemental or replacement source of protein in analogs of conventional non-fungal colloidal food products, such as ice cream and mayonnaise.

Abstract: A water-soluble sealant composition and a method for preparing the same which includes: adding soluble silver salt to a polyacrylic acid (PAA) solution; adjusting the pH of the PAA solution to 7-7.4; and heating the PAA solution to 90-125° C. The PAA has a molecular weight between 1000 to 8000. The composition includes a cross-linked poly(acrylic) silver matrix having affinity to proteins. The silver salt can be silver nitrate and/or silver acetate. The matrix may create hydrophilic zones which bind proteins. The composition when in contact with proteins may form hexagonal packing complexes of rod-like poly(acrylic) particles and proteins. It may form a clot made of multi-layered grid structure. In some cases, the complexes create loops that form cells comprising proteins e.g., albumin. The proteins may be of a body fluid such as blood, lymph and combinations thereof. The composition may be applied for a medical condition such as hemorrhage and lymphorrhea.

Abstract: According to some aspects of the invention a method for creation of a wound covering with haemostatic action includes: applying to an open wound a cell structure (grid)-forming water-soluble haemostatic composition designated as a Hemoblok consisting of a polyacrylic matrix as an active ingredient, where the matrix includes one or more polymeric carboxylic acid of a predetermined average molecular weight range, and a bactericidal agent; creating by Hemoblok on a wound surface a structure clot formation with blood plasma proteins, including albumin; creating by Hemoblok on the wound, a covering containing albumin molecules in cells of a polyacrylic structure matrix (grid), which is a primary organizer of sustainable grid structure clot film; further supplying of Hemoblok on an open wound surface to form a multilayered solid grid structure film; terminating of Hemoblok supply on a wound surface with following gradual replacement of a surface structure hemoblok-protein by fibrin.
