Nanoarchitectonics of a Skin-Adhesive Hydrogel Based on the Gelatin Resuscitation Fluid Gelatinol^®.

ABSTRACT: Hydrogel materials are one of the most versatile representatives of biomaterials. Their widespread use in medical practice is due to their similarity to native biostructures regarding relevant properties. This article discusses the synthesis of hydrogels based on a plasma-substituting Gelatinol^® solution and modified tannin, carried out by direct mixing of the two solutions and brief heating. This approach makes it possible to obtain materials based on precursors that are safe for humans, while having antibacterial activity and high adhesion to human skin. Thanks to the synthesis scheme used, it is possible to obtain hydrogels with a complex shape before use, which is relevant in cases where industrial hydrogels do not fully satisfy the end use regarding their form factor
