“…The prevalence and severity of wounds prompted researchers to focus on wound healing management studies, as well as the demand for wound dressings. Accidents, burns, surgical operations, and violent impact all cause breaks or lacerations in the skin's membrane layers, causing damage to underlying tissues or disruption of cellular integrity, resulting in wounds [60]. Physical, mechanical, thermal, biochemical, surgical, or metabolism-related problems can all result in wounds [61][62][63][64].…”

A lot of advancements have taken place in the wound dressing materials and in wound healing process. Alginate based wound dressings materials are more preferable due to their biocompatibility and non-toxic unique biological characteristics. There’s always a need to increase the efficacy of alginates by combining with other biopolymers like chitosan, collagen and cellulose etc. However, the recent trend towards the natural and herbal bio-compounds are more likely attracting to develop alginate based wound dressing materials with higher efficiency, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory potency. Out of many natural compounds tested, curcumin has shown high potency and more effectively used for wound healing purpose. Due to curcumin’s bio-medical properties it has been used as a vital ingredient combined with alginate and other biopolymers to prepare wound dressing materials. Based on the available literatures, this review chapter on alginate-curcumin nanocomposite will help the reader to develop better wound healing materials with evolutionary therapeutic applications.
