The present invention provides a hemostatic material which is excellent in
hemostatic property, biodegradability and bioabsorbability, uniformity
and stability of the quality, as well as reduces a risk of contamination
with a pathogenic organism derived from an animal. The hemostatic
material comprises a thrombin and a synthetic polypeptide capable of
forming a triple helical structure. The polypeptide may show a peak of
the molecular weight in the range from 5.times.10.sup.4 to
100.times.10.sup.4 in the molecular weight distribution. The polypeptide
may contain at least a peptide unit represented by the formula:
-Pro-X-Gly- (in the formula, X represents Pro or Hyp). The thrombin may
be a recombinant. In the hemostatic material, the proportion of the
thrombin may be about 0.1 to 500 units (U) relative to 1 mg of the
polypeptide. The hemostatic material may further comprise a binder
component having biodegradability and bioabsorbability. The hemostatic
material may be formed on a substrate.
