Employing of Curcumin–Silver Nanoparticle-Incorporated Sodium Alginate-Co-Acacia Gum Film Hydrogels for Wound Dressing

Skin wound healing is time-consuming and frequently accompanied by bacterial infections the development of scars. The rise antibiotic-resistant strains has sparked a growing interest in naturally occurring bioactive substances, like curcumin, that possess wound-healing capabilities. Silver natural antimicrobial agent, finds extensive use specialized dressings. nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using an eco-friendly approach, employing curcumin. prepared have been characterized TEM, DLS, zeta potential. AgNPs loaded on sodium alginate-co-gum arabic hydrogel. Two hydrogel samples (with without AgNPs) applied for healing. developed silver created exhibited effective action against both types bacteria, namely Gram-negative Gram-positive. Alg-co-AG-AgNPs demonstrated faster rates compared to control sample. novel dressings curcumin–silver nanoparticle-incorporated hydrogels (Alg-co-AG-AgNPs) exceptional biocompatibility potential serve as dressing possesses antibacterial properties reduces scarring.
