Japanese researchers have developed a medical hemostatic clip that can be dissolved in the body, which not only reduces the risk after surgery, but also avoids obstructing medical imaging.

Kobe University announced on the 13th that the school's researchers noticed that magnesium is easily dissolved after encountering moisture in animals, and the safety of the body is very high. Therefore, a new type of hemostatic clip is made by mixing calcium and zinc into the magnesium material. . It is only about 5 mm long, but the clamping force is greater.

The researchers found through a mouse experiment that after about 3 months, the hemostatic clip was cut in half in the mouse, and all the hemostatic clips disappeared within one year.

Current medical procedures generally use tiny hemostatic clips made of titanium metal. This hemostatic clip will remain in the body after surgery on certain abdominal organs. Although usually harmless, there is also a risk of hemostasis being pinched into nearby organs and causing a condition. Moreover, when the patient undergoes a computed tomography scan in the future, the tissue around the hemostatic clip may appear blurry on the image.

The research director and professor at Kobe University told Mr. Jing Min that the hemostatic clip is a commonly used surgical tool. This new hemostatic clip will be a contribution if it can be used for treatment. They will strive to bring this hemostatic clip to a practical level within two or three years.

Fungi, a large class of chlorophyll - free, can not carry out photosynthesis, heterotrophic lower class of plants. These include bacteria, slime molds and fungi. Their common characteristics are: the plant body has no differentiation of roots, stems and leaves, does not contain chlorophyll and other photosynthetic pigments (except a few photosynthetic bacteria), can not carry out photosynthesis, saprophytic life or parasitic life, that is, heterotrophic life. Most of the reproductive organs are single-cell structures, and the zygotes do not develop into embryos.
