Abstract:
Wound healing refers to the replacement of destroyed or damaged tissue of a living organism by newly produced tissue, and the time taken is known as wound regeneration time. Wound care is a major challenging biomedical field due to the delayed healing process or delayed wound regeneration time. The factors responsible for delayed wound healing are poor oxygen flow, less exposure to moisture, diseases such as diabetes and cancer, etc., Wound dressings that are formulated from biopolymers such as chitosan, chitin, and cellulose have properties such as biocompatibility (compatible with living systems and does not cause any immunological rejection), biodegradable, nontoxic with minimal side effects, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory properties. Chitosan is obtained from scales of fish and shrimp. It contains highly reactive amine groups and sodium alginate, which is a polysaccharide produced from seaweed and bacteria and is biocompatible with living systems and biodegradable polysaccharides. This study is based on the development of sodium alginate crosslinked hydrogel and testing the properties of hydrogel with amoxycillin drug and water release property of the drug.
