Abstract: Composite materials made of a citrate, a calcium carbonate-containing material and an association moiety which is associated with the citrate and the calcium carbonate-containing material are provided. The composite materials are typically particulate materials (e.g., powdery materials). Compositions and articles-of-manufacturing containing and/or configured for applying the composite materials are also provided, as well as their use in inducing blood coagulation and arresting hemorrhage, including internal and/or massive hemorrhage.

Abstract: Compositions comprising a citrate salt and a calcium carbonate-containing material, articles-of-manufacturing and kits comprising same and uses thereof for inducing blood coagulation and/or for reducing or arresting hemorrhaging, particularly internal hemorrhaging, are disclosed.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for repair and regeneration of neural tissue are provided. Particularly, methods and compositions for promoting neural tissue wound healing and treatment of traumatic brain injury using porous crystalline calcium carbonate particles and a biocompatible polymer, for example compositions comprising porous coral exoskeleton particles in combination with a biocompatible polymer, and optionally comprising neural growth agents and platelets for application to damaged neural tissue for enhancing neural regrowth and recovered functionality, in, for example, but not limited to, traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Abstract: Disclosed are anticoagulant and decoagulant methods, compositions and devices comprising calcium carbonate, particularly, comprising aragonite.
