Abstract: The present invention relates to an animal model for evaluating hemostatic performance, and the use thereof, and more particularly, to an animal model for evaluating the performance of a hemostatic agent, which has hemorrhage induced in the common carotid artery (CCA) or superior sagittal sinus (SSS) of the animal, a method of screening a hemostatic agent using the animal model, and a method of evaluating the effect of a hemostatic agent using the animal model. The animal model according to the present invention makes it possible to observe the hemostatic effect of a hemostatic agent in a rapid and accurate manner without causing side effects. Thus, the animal model is useful for screening a hemostatic agent and evaluating the effect of a hemostatic agent.

Abstract: Provided is an adhesive composition disclosed herein includes tannin, poly(ethylene glycol) and water. The adhesive composition has little toxicity, allows adhesion even in the absence of a thermosetting curing agent, and is hardly soluble in water to show moisture resistance, unlike known tannin adhesives. Therefore, the adhesive composition may be used as a medical adhesive, adhesive depot for sustained release of drug, anti-adhesion agent, cell/protein adsorption barrier and medical hemostatic applicable to various wet environments.
