Dielectric characterization of neutralized and nonneutralized chitosan upon drying.
Isothermal dielectric loss spectra of neutralized and nonneutralized chitosan were acquired in successive runs from -130 degrees C up to increasing final temperatures, in a frequency range between 20 Hz and 1 MHz. Essentially, three relaxation processes were detected in the temperature range covered: (i) a beta-wet process, detected when the sample has a higher water content that vanishes after...
متن کاملIn vivo performance of chitosan/soy-based membranes as wound-dressing devices for acute skin wounds.
Wound management represents a major clinical challenge on what concerns healing enhancement and pain control. The selection of an appropriate dressing plays an important role in both recovery and esthetic appearance of the regenerated tissue. Despite the wide range of available dressings, the progress in the wound care market relies on the increasing interest in using natural-based biomedical p...
متن کاملCultured skin substitutes: a review.
Skin substitutes composed of cultured cells and biopolymers provide alternative materials for study of skin biology and pathology, treatment of skin wounds, safety testing of consumer products, and therapeutic delivery of gene products. Most frequently, substitutes for epidermis consist of cultured keratinocytes and dermal substitutes consist of resorbable biopolymers populated with cultured fi...
متن کاملClinical applications of skin substitutes.
A unique understanding of the components of mammalian skin has led to the development of numerous skin substitutes. These skin substitutes attempt to compensate for functional and physiologic deficits present in damaged tissue. Skin substitutes, when appropriately applied in optimized settings, offer a promising solution to difficult wound management. The body of literature on skin substitutes ...
