Abstract
Compositions and methods related to powdered hemostats that crosslink during and/or after application to a bleeding site are described. The compositions may comprise a first component comprising a multifunctionalized polymeric composition (e.g., multifunctionalized polyethylene glycol) functionalized with electrophilic reactive groups, and a second component that comprises a protein such as albumin. The compositions may in certain applications act as hemostats when applied in dry powder form to a bleeding wound, whereupon the first component and the second component of the composition crosslink to form a hydrogel.
