Abstract
), as well as wound healing investigations conducted in living mice confirmed that these hydrogels possessed excellent antibacterial, antioxidative, and wound healing abilities. We believe this proof of concept could create a novel pathway for the design and construction of highly efficient hydrogel dressings using readily available polymeric materials and that the resulting dressing have potential for clinical applications.
