An effective treatment for chronic wounds that does not involve antibiotics, but an ionized gas to activate a wound dressing, has been developed by a team of international scientists. The treatment ...

Biomedical engineers from Brown University have developed a new wound dressing material that releases antibiotic drugs only when harmful bacteria are present in a wound. In the new study, published in ...

Diabetic wounds often become chronically infected and are notoriously difficult to treat. Two primary reasons for this include the formation of a bacterial biofilm and high levels of oxidative stress.

The advantages and selection of conductive materials, including conductive polymers and inorganic nanoparticles are discussed in detail. Signal output categories of the conductive hydrogel dressing to ...

The hydrogel dressing killed MRSA through membrane disruption by carbonized polymer dots while MXene nanosheets provided antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. In a diabetic mouse model with ...

A new generation of wound dressings is combining biosensing materials with artificial intelligence to deliver real-time insights into wound healing, offering a data-driven approach to managing chronic ...
