Synergistic Effect of Chitosan and Selenium Nanoparticles on Biodegradation and Antibacterial Properties of Collagenous Scaffolds Designed for Infected Burn Wounds

Abstract: A highly porous scaffold is a desirable outcome in the field of tissue engineering. The porous structure mediates water-retaining properties that ensure good nutrient transportation as well as creates a suitable environment for cells. In this study, porous antibacterial collagenous scaffolds containing chitosan and selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) as antibacterial agents were studied. The addition of antibacterial agents increased the application potential of the material for infected and chronic wounds. The mor… Show more

“…This study aims to extend our previous work on collagen-based scaffolds modified with chitosan [ 3 ] and enriched with thermostable fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2-STAB ® ) [ 9 ]. Biodegradable collagen/chitosan/FGF2-STAB ® scaffolds revealed promising results in cell culture experiments and have displayed high suitability and biocompatibility to be used as a transferable scaffold for tissue reconstruction.…”

“…Natural polymers like chitosan, hyaluronic acid (HA), collagen or gelatin and synthetic polymers like polyethyleneglycol (PEG) or polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) are present in studies related to skin tissue engineering [ 49 , 50 , 51 ]. Chitosan materials filled with selenium nanoparticles were proven to be effective against infections in burnt wounds [ 52 ]. Additionally, scaffolds based on silk fibroin-collagen loaded with titania nanoparticles were adequate for skin tissue regeneration [ 53 ].…”

“…Selenium is one of the important trace elements in the human body that regulates various physiological functions, such as antioxidant behavior, anti-inflammatory effects, and immunity functions [ 36 , 37 , 38 ]. Selenium plays a role in relieving oxidative stress in fibroblasts subjected to heat shock [ 39 ], inhibits the cell cycle, and induces cytotoxicity and apoptosis in carcinogenic cell lines of the colon, breast, lung, or prostate [ 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 ].…”
