Abstract
animal experiments also demonstrated that the GS hydrogel effectively accelerates the wound healing processes by eradicating microbes, promoting collagen deposition and angiogenesis. In summary, this GS hydrogel demonstrates excellent mechanical performance, photothermal antimicrobial activity, and promotes skin tissue regeneration, and so has great application potential as a promising wound dressing material in clinical use.
