چکیده
91 Biodegradable haemostats [Absorbable gelatin sponges] and Hydrogels are a part of modern wound management systems. Development of absorbable gelatin sponges, drug loaded sponges, hydrogels and drug loaded hydrogels for advanced wound management was investigated in this research project. The developed formulations were evaluated to determine their potential for advanced wound management as described in the following chapters. Chapter 3A: Formulation and evaluation of absorbable gelatin sponges Chapter 3B: Formulation and evaluation of drug loaded absorbable gelatin sponges Chapter 4A: Formulation and evaluation of hydrogels Chapter 4B: Formulation and evaluation of drug loaded hydrogels

Production and Characterization of Gelatine Based Electro-spun Nano-fibres as Burn Wound Dressings
Silver sulfadiazine is used to prevent and treat infections of second- and third-degree burns. It kills a wide variety of bacteria. In this study silver sulfadiazine was used in gelatin based electro-spun nano-fibers with various drug to polymer ratios (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 %). SEM, EDX and FTIR analysis showed that the continuous, bead-free, fine fibers containing silver sulfadiazine as an anti...
