A wound-friendly antibacterial hyaluronic acid dressing with on-demand removability for infected wound healing.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Antibacterial activity and on-demand removability are key characteristics governing the effectiveness of clinic wound dressing. However, the excellent tissue adhesion of new dressings is often overemphasized without a detailed discussion of dressing replacement. Besides, the inherent antibacterial ability of dressings is beneficial for promoting the healing of infected wound. Therefore, we rationally design an injectable antibacterial wound dressing with on-demand removability to accelerate infected wound healing.

Method

We design this wound dressing with a simple and feasible method based on the electrostatic self-assembly of hyaluronic acid and ε-polylysine. We investigated the efficacy of this dressing in terms of its microtopography, rheology, self-healing per
