Development of antimicrobial chitosan based nanofiber dressings for wound healing applications
Objective(s): Chitosan based composite fine fibers were successfully produced via a centrifugal spinning technology. This study evaluates the ability of the composites to function as scaffolds for cell growth while maintaining an antibacterial activity. Materials and methods: Two sets of chitosan fiber composites were prepared, one filled with anti-microbial silver nanoparticles and another on...
متن کاملChitosan-polyethylene glycol coated cotton membranes for wound dressings
Membranes have been developed by coating a blend of chitosan (CS) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) of different molecular weights (4000, 10,000 and 20,000) on cotton fabric followed by freeze drying. The influence of PEG molecular weight on the physical characteristics of the membranes has been investigated. The scanning electron microscopy of the coated fabric reveals porous structure. The porosi...
متن کاملTextile-based smart wound dressings
Efforts have been made during the last few years towards the development of new artificial wound coverings which will meet the requirements necessary for the treatment of major skin wounds. Research has been mainly focused on achieving the specifications of an ideal wound dressing, such as hydrogel technologies providing products suitable for applications in biomedical, personal care as well as...
متن کاملWound dressings.
There are currently hundreds of dressings on the market to aid in wound management. Before selecting a dressing for a particular wound, a practitioner must assess carefully the needs of the wound to understand which dressing would provide maximal benefit. Frequently, there is not one clear best choice, and it is crucial that the pros and cons of each dressing modality be understood. This articl...
متن کاملChitosan-based dressings loaded with neurotensin--an efficient strategy to improve early diabetic wound healing.
One important complication of diabetes mellitus is chronic, non-healing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). This study aims to develop and use dressings based on chitosan derivatives for the sustained delivery of neurotensin (NT), a neuropeptide that acts as an inflammatory modulator in wound healing. Three different derivatives, namely N-carboxymethyl chitosan, 5-methyl pyrrolidinone chitosan (MPC) a...
