Siloxane-Reinforced GelMA/Methacrylated Chitosan Hydrogels for DLP Printing

Photocrosslinked gelatin methacryloyl/methacrylated chitosan (GelMA/CSMA) hydrogels are attractive for biomedical applications but are limited by insufficient mechanical strength. Here, γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) was prehydrolyzed and condensed to generate siloxane species retaining polymerizable metha...

Development and characterization of a polycaprolactone/chitosan hydrogel dressing loaded with Echinophora platyloba extract and amphotericin B for enhanced antifungal activity

Hydrogel wound dressings are promising for managing infected wounds due to their biocompatibility, high water absorption and ability to deliver therapeutic agents. In this study, polycaprolactone (PCL)/chitosan (CS) hydrogels were developed and loaded with amphotericin B (AmB) and/or hydroalcoholic extract of Echi...

Atorvastatin-loaded HPMC/Eudragit composite hydrogel film dressings: physicomechanical properties, sustained release, and wound-repair performance.

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)/Eudragit L100 composite hydrogel film dressings were developed for the localized and sustained delivery of atorvastatin to excisional wounds. Solvent-cast formulations containing different HPMC/Eudragit ratios were screened for swelling, mass loss, and tensile strength, and the opti...
