In the treatment of dermal wounds, wound-dressing materials prepared from natural mucopolysaccharides are widely used because of their advantages such as nonirritation, nontoxicity, and ease in topical application. In the present study, alginate hydrogels modified with N-acetyl glucose amine (NAG) were prepared as wound-dressing material. Physical, chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of the hydrogels were studied. Cytotoxicity of the hydrogels on endothelial (HUVEC) and keratinocyte (HaCaT) cells were examined. Anti-and proinflammatory cytokine levels of human monocyte-macrophage cells (THP-1) stimulated with hydrogels were determined. According to the results, increasing the NAG concentration led to an increase in the swelling and nitrogen ratios in the hydrogels. Additionally, increasing the NAG concentration decreased elastic modulus and degradation time. Hydrogels were not cytotoxic on HaCaT and HUVEC cells. It stimulated IL-10 and TNF-alpha levels at a small rate.

“…This layer helps in the maintenance of an optimum environment required by the wound. The calcium ions present in the alginates provide the gelling property and also help in the production of a slowdegrading polymeric gel 20,21 . According to a comparative study, the alginates show a higher residence time compared to hydrocolloid dressings 22 .…”

There are a wide variety of dressing techniques available for the management of both acute and chronic wounds. The primary objective in both the cases is to achieve a healed wound. An ideal dressing material should accelerate wound healing and reduce loss of necessary fluids from the wound, and also help minimize pain and infection. The present trend is to promote the concept of moist wound healing. This article emphasizes on the importance of assessment of the wound, the volume of drainage fluid, amount of damage, presence of infection and location of wound for optimal wound healing.
