A study conducted at M.S. Ramaiah University of Applied Sciences in Bengaluru, India, has developed a self-healing hydrogel composed of carboxymethyl chitosan and oxidized alginate for wound healing applications. The hydrogel was characterized for its properties and evaluated for antibacterial activity, cytotoxicity, haemocompatibility, and in vitro wound healing studies. The results showed that the hydrogel exhibited good antibacterial activity, haemocompatibility, and comparable wound healing efficacy to marketed formulations. This research suggests that self-healing hydrogels made of oxidized alginate and carboxymethyl chitosan have potential applications in tissue engineering. [Extracted from the article] |
