HEC TDF Project Commercialization
Dr Muhammad Yar who is an Associate Professor at Interdisciplinary Research Center in
Biomedical Materials, COMSATS University Islamabad (CUI) Lahore Campus successfully
developed KytoStat™ an Instant blood stopping agent and KytoGraft™ a wound dressing.
Imported products for these clinical applications are expensive and not affordable. These
products were the result of TDF Project awarded to Dr Yar by Higher Education Commission of
Pakistan in 2018 and Cotton Craft Pvt Ltd was his industrial partner in this project. A technology
transfer agreement was signed between CUI and Cotton Craft in 2018. Drug Regulatory
Authority of Pakistan (DRAP) approved Cotton Craft to manufacture these wound care and
blood stopping products in Pakistan in June 2021. Both products have been manufactured at
Industrial scale. The Picture below shows these products.
