Zeolites

Zeolites. A group of crystalline, hydrated alkali-aluminum silicates. They occur naturally in sedimentary and volcanic rocks, altered basalts, ores, and clay deposits. Some 40 known zeolite minerals and a great number of synthetic zeolites are available commercially. (From Merck Index, 11th ed)

1.	Hemorrhage 12/01/2006 - "We have previously identified a granular zeolite hemostat (ZH) as an effective agent for control of severe bleeding, and it is currently being used by the US troops in the battlefield. " 03/01/2009 - "QuikClot is a zeolite-based hemostatic agent that can control severe hemorrhage through adsorption of water in an exothermic reaction. " 01/01/2009 - "According to the physiological parameters, we observed that zeolite tends to reduce blood loss, however could not stop bleeding completely. " 10/01/2008 - "Zeolites have hemostatic properties used to stop bleeding in severe hemorrhage.

" 08/19/2015 - "Zeolite aging in hot water prior to catalysis decreased the weight normalized dehydration reaction rate compared to that of the parent HBEA, which is attributed to the reduced concentration of accessible Brønsted acid sites. "
3.	Infection 12/01/1992 - "It is concluded that the slow release of drug from the zeolite matrix improved its efficacy, especially in removing worms from low-grade infections." 04/01/2014 - "The excellent biocompatibility, drug delivery property, and bactericidal property of the ZSM-5 zeolites suggest that they have great application potentials for treating implant-associated infections." 09/01/1997 - "The purpose of this study was to elucidate the in vitro antimicrobial effect of tissue conditioners containing silver-zeolite on Candida albicans and nosocomial respiratory infection-causing bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. " 04/01/2014 - "There were 2 infection treatments (with or without Salmonella) and 4 diets: basal (BAS), 0.3% smectite A (SMA), 0.3% smectite B, and 0.3% zeolite.
