🚀 Excited to announce our latest publication in Biointerface Research in Applied Chemistry with IFIA Research Innovation Teams Department! 🎉 Our research, titled "Preparation and in vivo Evaluation of an Astragalus Gummifer Hydrogel-Based Dressing for Excisional Wound," delves into innovative wound healing solutions using natural biopolymers. We explored the efficacy of Astragalus gummifer (A.G.) combined with pecan oil in creating a hydrogel dressing that significantly enhances the wound healing process. Key Findings: Antibacterial Properties: Our hydrogel exhibited strong antibacterial activity against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Accelerated Healing: In vivo studies on Wistar rats showed complete wound healing within seven days using a 0.8% pecan oil concentration. Biocompatibility: The hydrogel was well-tolerated, with no signs of skin irritation or allergic reactions. Methodology: We prepared the hydrogel by dissolving A.G. powder in distilled water and incorporating pecan oil. This formulation was then tested for antibacterial effectiveness, skin sensitivity, and wound healing efficiency. This study showcases the potential of natural biopolymer-based hydrogels in advanced wound care, offering a biocompatible and efficient alternative to traditional dressings. A heartfelt thank you to my dedicated team for their hard work and commitment to this project. Together, we are pushing the boundaries of biomedical innovation. 🔗 Read the full article here https://lnkd.in/dsD3AFzf #WoundHealing #BiomedicalResearch #Biopolymers #Innovation #ResearchPublication #BiointerfaceResearch #AstragalusGummifer
