Antimicrobial PAA/PAH electrospun fiber containing green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles for wound healing
(MDPI, 2021-05-27)Wound infections are the main complication when treating skin wounds. This work reports a novel antimicrobial material using green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) incorporated in polymeric fibers for wound ... -
Characterization of gels and films produced from Pinhão seed coat nanocellulose as a potential use for wound healing dressings and screening of Its compounds towards antitumour effects
(MDPI, 2022-07-07)The reuse of agro-industrial waste assumes great importance today. Pinhão is the seed of Araucaria angustifolia, which is native to the mountains of southern Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. The coat is a by-product of ... -
Electrospinning of hydrogels for biomedical applications
(Springer Nature, 2018)The field of biomedical applications for hydrogels requires the development of nanostructures with specific controlled diameter and mechanical properties. Nanofibers are ideally candidates for these advanced requirements, ... -
Microfibrillated cellulose films containing chitosan and tannic acid for wound healing applications
(Springer, 2021-06-12)The effectiveness of tannic acid as antimicrobial and wound healing for burns have been shown for a century; however, uncontrolled target dosage may result in undesirable side-effects. Remarkably, tannic acid polyphenols ... -
Synthesis and in vivo behaviour of PVP/CMC/Agar hydrogel membranes impregnated with silver nanoparticles for wound healing applications.
(ACS, 2018)The field of wound healing has seen an increase in research activity in wound care and hydrogel-based dressings have been targeted as a solution for these applications. Hydrogels with silver nanoparticles can present many ...
