“…Among the various natural polymers, alginate, albumin, or chitosan have been widely used in drug formulations. Few others, including collagen, silk fibroin, elastin, gelatin, hyaluronic acid, and bacterial cellulose, have been investigated for wound healing [70,93,94]. Manufactured polymers can be modified during synthesis and can be adapted according to the specific requirements considering their biological applications and hence have the edge over the biopolymers of natural origin [40].…”

Skin wounds are categorized as 'acute' or 'chronic' based on the healing process. Wound care is of utmost importance as the break in the skin barrier exposes the internal milieu to various commensal and pathogenic microbes. The usage of nanomaterials is a recent approach to facilitate wound healing by processes that operate singly or in tandem. Metal based nanomaterials show antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory activities; and organic-inorganic, organic-organic nanocomposites as 'smart', 'advanced' materials would play a crucial role in wound care. Use of nanomaterials in wound care would revolutionarize treatment, thus lowering the economic burden.
