Application


  • Exploration of Whitlockite Nanostructures for Hemostatic Applications.: This study explores the use of Whitlockite nanostructures, synthesized using calcium nitrate tetrahydrate, for their potential in hemostatic applications. The findings suggest that these nanostructures can significantly enhance blood clotting, making them a viable option for medical use (Jain et al., 2024).
