Collagen-Based Films Containing Liposome-Loaded Usnic Acid as Dressing for Dermal Burn Healing

Collagen-Based Films Containing Liposome-Loaded Usnic Acid as Dressing for Dermal Burn Healing

The aim of this study was assess the effect of collagen-based films containing usnic acid as a wound dressing for dermal burn healing. Second-degree burn wounds were performed in forty-five Wistar rats, assigned into nine groups: COL-animals treated with collagen-based films; PHO-animals treated with collagen films containing empty liposomes; UAL-animals treated with collagen-based films contai...

Development of Stabilized Growth Factor-Loaded Hyaluronate– Collagen Dressing (HCD) matrix for impaired wound healing

BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus is a disease lack of insulin, which has severely delayed and impaired wound healing capacity. In the previous studies, various types of scaffolds and growth factors were used in impaired wound healing. However, there were several limitations to use them such as short half-life of growth factors in vivo and inadequate experimental conditions of wound-dressing materia...

Preparation of collagen burn-healing membranes

Collagen protein is obtained from fresh pigskin through hydrolysis with trypsin. By further adding extracts from scutellaria baicalensis (a Chinese herb), glutaraldehyde and etc., a novel type of collagen burn-healing membrane can be prepared. This novel type of membrane has a porous cross-linked netlike structure. The degree of crosslinking and mechanical properties of the membrane are examine...

Gelam (Melaleuca spp.) Honey-Based Hydrogel as Burn Wound Dressing

A novel cross-linked honey hydrogel dressing was developed by incorporating Malaysian honey into hydrogel dressing formulation, cross-linked and sterilized using electron beam irradiation (25 kGy). In this study, the physical properties of the prepared honey hydrogel and its wound healing efficacy on deep partial thickness burn wounds in rats were assessed. Skin samples were taken at 7, 14, 21,...
