Artificial metal based nanozyme
🔆 Key Takeaways: IISc Develops Artificial Nanozyme to Prevent Excess Blood Clotting
✅ IISc researchers have developed a metal-based nanozyme that can help prevent excess blood clotting, particularly in conditions like pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE).
✅ The nanozyme mimics natural antioxidant enzymes, controlling oxidative stress and reducing platelet aggregation.
✅ Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) was found to be the most efficient in preventing clot formation.
✅ The team plans to explore its effectiveness in treating ischemic stroke and clogging of blood vessels.
