“…The phenolic compounds in olive leaf extract (OLE) composition, such as oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, and tyrosol, promote antimicrobial activities [22][23][24]. Furthermore, oleuropein is noteworthy as the main compound responsible for several pharmacological activities, such as hypotensive, antioxidant, hypoglycemic, hypocholesterolemic, antitumor, radioprotective, and anti-inflammatory effects [18,19,[22][23][24][25][26], which allow an improvement in biological behavior when applied to dressing materials.…”

This study seeks to enhance bilayer membranes using a combination of chitosan and sodium alginate (CS/SA) with phytochemical compounds extracted from olive leaves (CS/SA-OLE), intended for use as a skin dressing. Olive leaf extracts (OLE) were sustainably obtained and showed a phenolic composition of 114.49 mgGAE·g−1 and antioxidant activity of 94.25%. CS/AS and CS/SA-OLE were prepared using the casting method. The results showed that the addition of OLE improved the mechanical and barrier properties of the membranes. The elongation at break increased from 9.99 to 14.68%, and the water transmission rate reduced from 2207.78 to 2094.33 (g·m−2·24 h−1) after the addition of OLE. The FTIR spectra showed functional groups of phenolic compounds, and the thermogravimetric analysis showed that the addition of OLE improved the thermal stability of the membranes. In addition, the CS/SA-OLE membranes showed active potential with inhibition halos (12.19 mm) against the microorganism Escherichia coli. The membranes generated in this research, particularly those with the addition of natural extracts, exhibit significant promise for utilization as wound dressings.
