Printable Biodegradable Hydrogel with Self-Crosslinking Agents for Wound Dressings

The printed Biomaterial Laboratory at UTEP does research a printable hydrogel which can have appropriate properties for tissue engineering of the skin. Skin is the largest organ in our body which protects us from the environment and pathogens. Skin can be affected by burns and also by diabetic foot ulcers. The current tissue engineered skin substitutes for treatment of diabetic foot ulcers have...
