Developing and designing efficient wound dressings have gained increasing attention and shown beneficial results in improved wound healing effects. This study was conducted to improve wound healing properties and introduce a novel potential wound dressing. A novel hydrogel based on polyvinylpyrrolidone/poly acrylic acid containing Zinc oxide nanoparticles was prepared as an antibacterial wound dressing and examined in a rat excisional wound model. This hydrogel prepared by free radical polymerization using potassium persulfate (KPS) as an initiator, N, N-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA) as a cross-linker, poly acrylic acid (PAA) as a monomer in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs). Analyses such as Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), and Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to study morphology structure. After choosing the optimal sample, in vivo characterization of excisional wound injury on a rat model was done. The healing rate and histological analysis were calculated and compared among the groups. The therapeutic potential of the PAA-PVP-ZnO-%2 was investigated in a rat model of excisional injury compared to the control group. Results showed that the polyacrylic acid/polyvinylpyrrolidone hydrogel wound dressing containing zinc oxide nanoparticles accelerated wound contraction, had antibacterial effects, and promoted wound healing compared to other groups. |
