We present a silica nanoparticle (SNP) functionalized with polyphosphate (polyP) that accelerate the body’s natural clotting process. SNPs initiate the blood clotting system’s contact pathway; short-chain polyP accelerates the common pathway via rapid formation of thrombin. This enhances the overall blood-clotting system, both by accelerating fibrin generation and by facilitating the regulatory anticoagulation mechanisms essential for hemostasis. Analyzing the clotting properties of bare SNPs, bare polyP, and polyP-functionalized SNPs in plasma, demonstrates that attaching polyP to SNPs to form polyP-SNPs creates a substantially enhanced synergistic effect that lowers clotting time and increases thrombin production at low concentrations when compared to bare SNPs or polyP alone. PolyP-SNP even retains its clotting function at ambient temperature. The polyP-SNP system has the potential to significantly improve trauma treatment protocols and outcomes in hospital and prehospital settings.
