A novel ε-poly-L-lysine-loaded sodium-alginate/gelatin hydrogel (PSG15) has shown exceptional promise in accelerating the healing of infected wounds. This multifunctional injectable hydrogel delivers ...

No matter the size or severity, wounds on human skin are difficult to monitor while they heal. Biopsies disrupt the wound ...

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.

A 3D-printed hydrogel wound dressing loaded with MXene and carbonized polymer dots kills drug-resistant MRSA and speeds ...

As the demand for advanced wound healing and drug delivery materials grows, scientists are turning to sustainable, bioactive materials for innovative solutions. A recent study by Bowei Wang et al., ...

In today's world, more people suffer from bone problems caused by injuries, infections, or birth defects. As the population grows older, these issues are becoming more common. Traditional treatments ...

Researchers from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) have recently achieved a remarkable breakthrough in the injectable hydrogel with the development of Fibro ...

When detected early, gastrointestinal tumours and lesions can be removed by passing an endoscope — a long tube equipped with a light and tools to remove polyps and tissue — in through the mouth or ...

The chronic skin ulcers that diabetics often develop on their feet are notoriously slow to heal, sometimes to the point that they become seriously infected and require foot amputation. A new magnetic ...
