Abstract:Skin injuries pose significant health challenges, with conditions like burns and diabetic, venous, and pressure ulcers presenting complex wound management scenarios. Effective wound care strategies for these injuries encompass a range of interventions, from simple wound dressings to bioactive materials and surgical procedures involving skin substitutes and skin grafting. This review explores the potential of natural polymers, including silk, collagen, gelatin, elastin, cellulose, chitosan, alginate, and hyalur… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
