The Effect of Glycerin Content in Sodium Alginate/Poly(vinyl alcohol)-Based Hydrogels for Wound Dressing Application

Abstract: The impact of different amounts of glycerin, which was used in the system of sodium alginate/poly(vinyl alcohol) (SA/PVA) hydrogel materials on the properties, such as gel fraction, swelling ability, degradation in simulated body fluids, morphological analysis, and elongation tests were presented. The study shows a significant decrease in the gel fraction from 80.5 ± 2.1% to 45.0 ± 1.2% with the increase of glycerin content. The T5 values of the tested hydrogels were varied and range from 88.7 °C to 161.5 °C. … Show more

“…It was observed that the immersion of the studied matrices, incorporated into the smart nanocarrier-drug system and without the additive, leads to a systematic and gradual increase in the parameters in time in each fluid (Figure 3). The evaluation of the changes in ionic conductivity over time indicates the expected trends, similar to the results obtained by the authors in previously published research [36,39,43]. It was observed that the immersion of the studied matrices, incorporated into the smart nanocarrier-drug system and without the additive, leads to a systematic and gradual increase in the parameters in time in each fluid (Figure 3).…”

“…On the other hand, the type of carrier used shows no significant effect on the pH of the fluids. The authors observed similar trends in research on a sodium alginate/poly(vinyl alcohol)based matrix as a basis for studies on the incorporation of the active substance into the matrix presented in this paper [43]. The evaluation of the changes in ionic conductivity over time indicates the expected trends, similar to the results obtained by the authors in previously published research [36,39,43].…”
