Hemocorrectors Based on Perfluorocarbon Gas-Transport Blood-Substituting Emulsions

Hemocorrectors based on perfluorocarbon gas-transport blood-substituting emulsions are complex multiphase systems used in the biomedical field as multifunctional drugs, in particular, as gas-transport substitutes for a blood donor. The aim of this review was to discuss their physicochemical and medico-biological properties. A number of preparations from both Russian and foreign manufacturers based on chemically inert perfluorocarbon blood-substituting emulsions of a nano-size level as hemocorrectors with a gas transport function are shown. The analysis of the effect of perfluorocarbon emulsion on the blood gas transport indicators showed that perfluorocarbon particles in the bloodstream will significantly improve the conditions of gas exchange in tissues. The most important issue is the concentration of perfluorocarbon blood-substituting emulsions. The perfluorocarbon emulsions can be considered as a means of correcting the gas transport properties of blood, increasing the reserve capacity of blood cells-red blood cells to deliver oxygen to the tissues. Taking into account all facts about perfluorocarbon hemocorrectors, it can be concluded that they can be used as universal nanocarriers for the transdermal delivery of oxygen and biologically active compounds in various fields of biomedicine and cosmetology
