Electron beam irradiation developed cinnamon oil- (polyvinyl alcohol/gum tragacanth)/graphene oxide dressing hydrogels: Antimicrobial and healing assessments. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 277:134384. [PMID: 39098683 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 07/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/30/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to develop hydrogel dressings for wound healing composed of gum tragacanth (TG) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) loaded with Graphene oxide (GO) and Cinnamon oil (CMO) using electron beam irradiation. The impact of the preparation conditions and the incorporation of GO and CMO on the characteristic properties of the prepared CMO-(PVA/TG)-GO wound dressings was evaluated. The healing-related characteristics were assessed, including fluid absorption and retention, water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), hemolytic assay, and antimicrobial potential. Wound healing efficacy was evaluated using a scratch wound healing assay. FTIR analysis verified the chemical structure, whereas scanning electron microscopy demonstrated an appropriate porosity structure necessary for optimal wound healing. The gel content increases with the initial total polymer concentration and the irradiation dose increases. Higher GO and CMO content improve the gel content and decreases swelling. WVTR decreases with the rise in CMO content. In vitro, cytotoxicity and hemolytic potency assessments confirmed their biocompatibility. The incorporation of GO and CMO enhances the antimicrobial activity and wound-healing capability. Based on the above findings, CMO-(PVA/TG)-GO dressings show promising potential as candidates for wound care.

Graphene-silymarin-loaded chitosan/gelatin/hyaluronic acid hybrid constructs for advanced full-thickness burn wound management. Int J Pharm 2024; 659:124238. [PMID: 38768692 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
Burn wounds (BWs) with extensive blood loss, along with bacterial infections and poor healing, may become detrimental and pose significant rehabilitation obstacles in medical facilities. Therefore, the freeze-drying method synthesized novel hemocompatible chitosan, gelatin, and hyaluronic acid infused with graphene oxide-silymarin (CGH-SGO) hybrid constructs for application as a BW patch. Most significantly, synthesized hybrid constructs exhibited an interconnected-porous framework with precise pore sizes (≈118.52 µm) conducive to biological functions. Furthermore, the FTIR and XRD analyses document the constructs' physiochemical interactions. Similarly, enhanced swelling ratios, adequate WVTR (736 ± 78 g m-2 hr-1), and bio-degradation rates were seen during the physiological examination of constructs. Following the in vitro investigations, SMN-GO added to constructs improved their anti-bacterial (against E.coli and S. aureus), anti-oxidant, hemocompatible, and bio-compatible characteristics in conjunction with prolonged drug release. Furthermore, in vivo, implanting constructs on wounds exhibited significant acceleration in full-thickness burn wound (FT-BW) healing on the 14th day (CGH-SGO: 95 ± 2.1 %) in contrast with the control (Gauze: 71 ± 4.2 %). Additionally, contrary to gauze, the in vivo rat tail excision model administered with constructs assured immediate blood clotting. Therefore, CGH-SGO constructs with an improved porous framework, anti-bacterial activity, hemocompatibility, and biocompatibility could represent an attractive option for healing FT-BWs.

Development of a tobramycin-loaded calcium alginate microsphere/chitosan composite sponge with antibacterial effects as a wound dressing. Biomed Mater 2024; 19:045030.

Abstract
Traditional dressings exhibit several disadvantages, as they frequently lead to bacterial infections, cause severe tissue adhesion and perform a relatively single function. Therefore, in this study, a composite sponge dressing with antibacterial properties and excellent physicochemical properties was developed. Six groups of tobramycin-loaded calcium alginate microspheres were prepared by changing the amount of tobramycin added, and the optimal group was selected. Then, seven groups of tobramycin-loaded calcium alginate microsphere/chitosan composite sponges were fabricated via a solvent blending process and a freeze-drying method. The surface morphology, physicochemical properties,in vitrodegradation properties,in vitrodrug release properties, antibacterial properties and cytotoxicity of the composite sponges were examined. Group 3.0 contained the best microspheres with the largest drug loading capacity, good swelling performance and cumulative drug release rate, obvious and sustained antibacterial activity, and good cytocompatibility. The tobramycin-loaded calcium alginate microsphere/chitosan composite sponges exhibited three-dimensional porous structures, and their porosity, swelling rate, water absorption and water retention rates and water vapor transmission rate met the standards needed for an ideal dressing. The comprehensive performance of the sponge was best when 20 mg of drug-loaded microspheres was added (i.e. group 20). The cumulative drug release rate of the sponge was 29.67 ± 4.14% at 7 d, the diameters of the inhibition zones against the three bacteria were greater than 15 mm, and L929 cell proliferation was promoted. These results demonstrated that the tobramycin-loaded calcium alginate microsphere/chitosan composite sponge with 20 mg of tobramycin-loaded microspheres shows promise as a dressing for infected wounds.

Abstract
Aim: Here, an innovative kind of antibacterial nanocomposite film is developed by incorporating graphene oxide and zinc oxide into chitosan matrix. Materials & methods: Our dressing was fabricated using the solution casting method. Fourier transform infrared spectra and TGA-DTG clearly confirmed the structure of film dressing. Results & conclusion: Our results showed the tensile strength and elongation at the break of the films were 20.1 ± 0.7 MPa and 36 ± 10%, respectively. Our fabricated film could absorb at least three-times the fluid of its dry weight while being biocompatible, antibacterial, non-irritant and non-allergic. In addition, it accelerated the healing process of infected wounds by regulating epithelium thickness and the number of inflammatory cells, thus it may be useful for direct application to damaged infected wounds.

Abstract
This study reports the fabrication and characterization of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and gelatin (Gel)-based nanofiber membranes cross-linked with citric acid (CA) by a green electrospinning method in which nano 45S5 bioglass (BG) and urea were incorporated. Various combinations of PVA, gelatin, and BG were prepared, and nanofiber membranes with average fiber diameters between 238 and 595 nm were fabricated. Morphological, chemical, and mechanical properties, porosity, swelling, water retention, and water vapor transmission rate of the fabricated membranes were evaluated. PVA:Gel (90:10), 15% CA, and 3% BG were determined as the optimum blend for nanofiber membrane fabrication via electrospinning. The membrane obtained using this blend was further functionalized with 10% w/w polymer urea coating by the electrospray method following the cross-linking. In vitro biocompatibility tests revealed that the fabricated membranes were all biocompatible except for the one that functionalized with urea. In vivo macroscopic and histopathological analysis results of PVA/Gel/BG and PVA/Gel/BG/Urea treated wounds indicated increased collagenization and vascularization and had an anti-inflammatory effect. Furthermore, careful examination of the in vivo macroscopic results of the PVA/Gel/BG/Urea membrane indicated its potential to decrease uneven scar formation. In conclusion, developed PVA/Gel/BG and PVA/Gel/BG/Urea electrospun membranes with multifunctional and biomimetic features may have the potential to be used as beneficial wound dressings.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex biological process crucial for restoring tissue integrity and preventing infections. The development of advanced materials that facilitate and expedite the wound-healing process has been a focal point in biomedical research. In this study, we aimed to enhance the wound-healing potential of hydrogel scaffolds by incorporating graphene oxide and poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (MEO2MA). Various masses of graphene oxide were added to MEO2MA hydrogels via free radical polymerisation. Comprehensive characterizations, encompassing mechanical properties, and biocompatibility assays, were conducted to evaluate the hydrogels' suitability for wound healing. In vitro experiments demonstrated that the graphene oxide-based hydrogels exhibited a proper swelling degree and tensile strength, responding effectively to moisture conditions and adhesiveness for wound healing. Notably, the tensile strength significantly increased to 626 kPa in the graphene oxide hydrogels. Biocompatibility assessments revealed that the graphene oxide/MEO2MA hydrogels were non-toxic to human dermal fibroblast cell growth, with no significant difference in cell viability observed in the graphene oxide/MEO2MA hydrogel (H-HG) group. In a rat skin experiment, the wound-healing rate of the hydrogel incorporating graphene oxide surpassed that of the pristine hydrogel after a 15-day treatment, achieving over 95% wound closure in the H-HG group. The histopathological analysis further supported the efficacy of the H-HG hydrogel dressing in promoting more effective tissue regeneration. These results collectively highlight the potential of the graphene oxide/MEO2MA hydrogel scaffold as a promising dressing for medical applications.

Abstract
Drug delivery techniques based on polymers have been investigated for their potential to improve drug solubility, reduce systemic side effects, and controlled and targeted administration at infection site. In this study, we developed a co-polymeric hydrogel composed of graphene sheets (GNS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and chitosan (CS) that is loaded with methotrexate (MTX) for in vitro liver cancer treatment. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) was employed to check the structural properties and surface morphology. Moreover, tests were conducted on the cytotoxicity, hemolytic activity, release kinetics, swelling behaviour and degradation of hydrogels. A controlled release of drug from hydrogel in PBS at pH 7.4 was examined using release kinetics. Maximal drug release in six hours was 97.34%. The prepared hydrogels did not encourage the HepG2 growth and were non-hemolytic. The current study highlights the potential of GNS-based hydrogel loaded with MTX as an encouraging therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma. HepG2 cell viability of MTX-loaded CS-PVA-GNS hydrogel was (IC50 5.87 µg/200 mL) in comparison to free MTX (IC50 5.03 µg/200 mL). These outcomes recommend that hydrogels with GNS ensure improved drug delivery in cancer microenvironment while lessening adverse consequences on healthy cells.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) membranes enabled by subnanosized diffusion channels are promising to separate small species in membrane distillation (MD). However, the challenge of effectively excluding small volatiles in MD persists due to the severe swelling and subsequent increase in GO interlamination spacing upon direct contact with the hot feed. To address this issue, we implemented a design in which a polymer is confined between the GO interlaminations, creating predominantly 2D nanochannels centered around 0.57 nm with an average membrane pore size of 0.30 nm. Compared to the virginal GO membrane, the polymer-intercalated GO membrane exhibits superior antiswelling performance, particularly at a high feed temperature of 60 °C. Remarkably, the modified membrane exhibited a high flux of approximately 52 L m-2 h-1 and rejection rates of about 100% for small ions and 98% for volatile phenol, with a temperature difference of 40 °C. Molecular dynamics simulations suggest that the sieving mechanisms for ions and volatiles are facilitated by the narrowed nanochannels within the polymer network situated between the 2D nanochannels of GO interlaminations. Concurrently, the unrestricted permeation of water molecules through the multinanochannel GO membrane encourages high-flux desalination of complex hypersaline wastewater.

Abstract
A novel cross-linked film dressing that can accelerate wound healing and guard against bacterial infection was presented in this work. The hyaluronic acid-proline-ferric ion (HA-Pro-Fe3+) film was successfully prepared by physically cross-linking method, which the carboxyl groups of the HA and Pro molecules should be in coordination with Fe3+. The HA-Pro-Fe3+ cross-linked film showed three-dimensional porous structure, appropriate water vapor permeability and swelling property, favorable cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility, antibacterial and antioxidative capability. The results of rat skin wound healing confirmed that HA-Pro-Fe3+ film could accelerate epithelial regeneration and collagen deposition, promote angiogenesis and significantly improve skin wound healing. Elisa analysis indicated that HA-Pro-Fe3+ material could down-regulate the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α, and up-regulate the level of TGF-β1 and VEGF. Given its biocompatibility, antibacterial ability, promotion of cell proliferation and angiogenesis, the wide application of HA-Pro-Fe3+ cross-linked film in wound repair would be anticipated.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems (DDSs) based on micro-and nano- fibrous membrane have been developed for decades, in which great attention has been focused on achieving controlled drug release. However, the study on the integrated performance of these drug-loaded membranes in the use of in-vitro drug delivery dressing is lacking, as clinical medication also needs consideration from the perspectives of wound safety and patient convenience. Herein, a trilayered hierarchical porous ethyl cellulose (EC) fibrous membrane based DDS (EC-DDS) was developed by electro-centrifugal spinning. Significantly, the hierarchical porous structure of the EC-DDSs with high specific surface area (34.3 m2g-1) and abundant long-regulative micro-and nano- channels demonstrated its merits in improving the hydrophobicity (long-term splash resistance (CA > 130°) and prolonging the drug release (the release time of ~80 % tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) prolonged from 10 min to 24 h). Meanwhile, the trilayered EC-DDS also revealed excellent biocompatibility, antibacterial activity, air permeability, moisture permeability, water absorption capacity, mechanical strength, and flexibility. With these excellent integrated features, the EC-DDS could prevent external fluids, avoid infection, and provide comfort. Furthermore, this work also provides a new guide for the high-efficiency fabrication of porous fibrous membranes.

Abstract
This review is conducted against the background of nanotechnology, which provides us with a chance to effectively combat the spread of coronaviruses, and which primarily concerns polyelectrolytes and their usability for obtaining protective function against viruses and as carriers for anti-viral agents, vaccine adjuvants, and, in particular, direct anti-viral activity. This review covers nanomembranes in the form of nano-coatings or nanoparticles built of natural or synthetic polyelectrolytes--either alone or else as nanocomposites for creating an interface with viruses. There are not a wide variety of polyelectrolytes with direct activity against SARS-CoV-2, but materials that are effective in virucidal evaluations against HIV, SARS-CoV, and MERS-CoV are taken into account as potentially active against SARS-CoV-2. Developing new approaches to materials as interfaces with viruses will continue to be relevant in the future.

Abstract
The goal of this study is to isolate cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) from sugarcane leaves (SCL) and fabricate filter membranes. Filter membranes consisting of the CNC and varying amount graphene oxide (GO) were fabricated using vacuum filtration technique. The α-cellulose content increased from 53.56 ± 0.49 % in untreated SCL to 78.44 ± 0.56 % and 84.99 ± 0.44 % in steam-exploded and bleached fibers, respectively. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) of CNC isolated from SCL indicated nanosized particles in the range of 7.3 nm and 150 nm for diameter and length, respectively. Morphologies of the fiber and CNC/GO membranes were determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and crystallinity by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of crystal lattice. The crystallinity index of CNC decreased with the addition of GO into the membranes. The CNC/GO-2 recorded the highest tensile index of 3.001 MPa. The removal efficiency increases with increasing GO content. The highest removal efficiency of 98.08 % was recorded for CNC/GO-2. CNC/GO-2 membrane reduced growth of Escherichia coli to 65 CFU compared to >300 CFU of control sample. SCL is a potential bioresource for isolation of cellulose nanocrystals and fabrication of high-efficiency filter membrane for particulate matter removal and inhibition of bacteria.

Abstract
Bacterial infection of the wound could potentially cause serious complications and an enormous medical and financial cost to the rapid emergence of drug-resistant bacteria. Nanomaterials are an emerging technology, that has been researched as possible antimicrobial nanomaterials for the inhibition of wound infection and enhancement of wound healing. Graphene is 2-dimensional (2D) sheet of sp2 carbon atoms in a honeycomb structure. It has superior properties, strength, conductivity, antimicrobial, and molecular carrier abilities. Graphene and its derivatives, Graphene oxide (GO) and reduced GO (rGO), have antibacterial activity and could damage bacterial morphology and lead to the leakage of intracellular substances. Besides, for wound infection management, Graphene-platforms could be functionalized by different antibacterial agents such as metal-nanoparticles, natural compounds, and antibiotics. The Graphene structure can absorb near-infrared wavelengths, allowing it to be used as antimicrobial photodynamic therapy. Therefore, Graphene-based material could be used to inhibit pathogens that cause serious skin infections and destroy their biofilm community, which is one of the biggest challenges in treating wound infection. Due to its agglomerated structure, GO hydrogel could entrap and stack the bacteria; thus, it prevents their initial attachment and biofilm formation. The sharp edges of GO could destroy the extracellular polymeric substance surrounding the biofilm and ruin the biofilm biomass structure. As well as, Chitosan and different natural and synthetic polymers such as collagen and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) also have attracted a great deal of attention for use with GO as wound dressing material. To this end, multi-functional polymers based on Graphene and blends of synthetic and natural polymers can be considered valid non-antibiotic compounds useful against wound infection and improvement of wound healing. Finally, the global wound care market size was valued at USD 20.8 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4% from 2022 to 2027 (USD 27.2 billion). This will encourage academic as well as pharmaceutical and medical device industries to investigate any new materials such as graphene and its derivatives for the treatment of wound healing.

Abstract
This work aimed to develop a glycerol antimicrobial peptide natural latex film (NRL-GI-AMP film) for the treatment of skin wound infections. The contents of this work mainly include investigating the effect of adding glycerol (GI) and an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) on the physical and chemical properties of natural latex (NRL) and analyzing the cytocompatibility, bacteriostatic activity, and infected wound healing promotion of the NRL-GI-AMP film. The results showed that the addition of GI resulted in more pores in the internal structure of the NRL film, while the addition of G(LLKK)3L AMP did not change the structure and properties of the NRL film. Compared with that of the NRL film, the infrared spectrum of the NRL-GI-AMP film did not produce new characteristic peaks, indicating that GI and AMP were non-covalently cross-linked with NRL. Addition of 10% GI reduces the toughness of the NRL-GI-AMP film by 62.0%, increases the water vapor transmission rate by 8.95 mg/(cm2·h), and reduces the water absorption and water retention distributions by 33.0 and 24.7%, respectively. AMP in the NRL-GI-AMP film could be released continuously for 40 h, and the release rate was about 45%. The NRL-GI-AMP film showed good biocompatibility and antibacterial activity and promoted the healing of infected wounds. Therefore, the NRL-GI-AP film has potential application in the development of dressings to inhibit skin wound infection and promote wound healing.

Abstract
Since 2020, surface disinfection has become particularly relevant thus requiring improved approaches to its implementation. Conventional disinfectants comprising concentrated solutions or soluble tablets fail to fully comply with the need for antimicrobial protection of surfaces, calling for their repetitive application. This leads to considerable expenses, with the price of disinfectants rising by 30–50% over the past two years. In this article, agents characterised by prolonged action due to film-forming antimicrobial components having good adhesion to various surfaces are developed in order to reduce the cost of the disinfection procedure and increase its efficiency. In addition, such systems can be used as additives to water paint coatings for minor maintenance of medical and preventive institutions. These materials can significantly reduce the growth rate of the harmful bacteria population, as well as provide long-term protection against it. In order to implement this approach, the polymer-polymer composition based on polyvinyl alcohol and polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride was developed. It should be noted that guanidine-containing polymers are characterised by high antimicrobial activity and low human toxicity, being also widely used as active agents in disinfectants. An excellent film-forming polymer exhibiting good adhesive properties, polyvinyl alcohol is non-toxic and chemically inert. Thus, the use of such additives can significantly reduce the extension of harmful bacteria, especially in crowded public areas.

Abstract
Hydrogels with injectability, self-healing ability and adhesiveness have great potential for hemostasis and full-thickness skin wound repair, which are usually fabricated by multistep chemical synthesis and the use of organic solvents and catalyst. Herein, we report an injectable and self-healing hydrogel facilely prepared through one-pot heating of chitosan and graphene oxide mixture solution, without any pollutant and waste generated. The dynamic reversible breakage and recombination of noncovalent bonds between chitosan and graphene oxide endows the hydrogel injectability and self-healing ability. In addition, the mechanical and rheological properties of the hydrogels can be controlled by varying the dosage of graphene oxide. Meanwhile, hydrogels exhibited good adhesiveness and hemocompatibility. Finally, in vivo experiments in a rat liver bleeding model and full-thickness skin defect model verified the outstanding hemostatic and wound healing capability of the hydrogels, indicating the promising future for use as wound dressing.

Abstract
In this study, graphene oxide (GO)-based aerogels cross-linked with chitosan (CS), gelatin (GEL), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were characterized and their hemostatic efficiencies both in vitro and in vivo were investigated and compared to commercial materials (ChitoGauze®XR and Spongostan™). All aerogels exhibited highly porous structures and a negative surface charge density favorable to their interaction with blood cells. The in vitro studies showed that all aerogels coagulated >60 % of the blood contained in their structures after 240 s of the whole-blood clotting assay, the GO-CS aerogel being the one with the highest blood clotting. All aerogels showed high hemocompatibility, with hemolytic rates <5 %, indicating their use as biomaterials. Among them, the GO-GEL aerogel exhibited the lowest hemolytic activity, due possibly to its high GEL content compared to the GO amount. According to their blood clotting activity, aerogels did not promote coagulation through extrinsic and intrinsic pathways. However, their surfaces are suitable for accelerating hemostasis by promoting alternative routes. All aerogels adhered platelets and gathered RBCs on their surfaces, and in addition the GO-CS aerogel surface also promoted the formation of filamentous fibrin networks adhered on its structure. Furthermore, in vivo evaluations revealed that all aerogels significantly shortened the hemostatic times and reduced the blood loss amounts compared both to the Spongostan™ and ChitoGauze®XR commercial materials and to the gauze sponge (control group). The hemostatic performance in vitro and in vivo of these aerogels suggests that they could be used as hemostats for controlling profuse bleedings.

[PMID: 35677301 PMCID: PMC9169157 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.865014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2022] [Accepted: 04/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Split skin graft (SSG), a standard gold treatment for wound healing, has numerous limitations such as lack of fresh skin to be applied, tedious process, severe scarring, and keloid formation followed by higher risks of infection. Thus, there is a gap in producing polymeric scaffolds as an alternative for wound care management. Bioscaffold is the main component in tissue engineering technology that provides porous three-dimensional (3D) microarchitecture for cells to survive. Upon skin tissue reconstruction, the 3D-porous structure ensures sufficient nutrients and gaseous diffusion and cell penetration that improves cell proliferation and vascularization for tissue regeneration. Hence, it is highly considered a promising candidate for various skin wound healing applications. To date, natural-based crosslinking agents have been extensively used to tailor the physicochemical and mechanical properties of the skin biomatrix. Genipin (GNP) is preferable to other plant-based crosslinkers due to its biological activities, such as antiinflammatory and antioxidant, which are key players to boost skin wound healing. In addition, it has shown a noncytotoxic effect and is biocompatible with human skin cells. This review validated the effects of GNP in biomatrix fabrication for skin wound healing from the last 7 years of established research articles and stipulated the biomaterial development-scale point of view. Lastly, the possible role of GNP in the skin wound healing cascade is also discussed. Through the literature output, it can be concluded that GNP has the capability to increase the stability of biomatrix and maintain the skin cells viability, which will contribute in accelerating wound healing.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and the ever-increasing bacterial resistance have imposed severe threat to human health. And bacterial contamination could significantly menace the wound healing process. Considering the sophisticated wound healing process, novel strategies for skin tissue engineering are focused on the integration of bioactive ingredients, antibacterial agents included, into biomaterials with different morphologies to improve cell behaviors and promote wound healing. However, a comprehensive review on anti-bacterial wound dressing to enhance wound healing has not been reported. In this review, various antibacterial biomaterials as wound dressings will be discussed. Different kinds of antibacterial agents, including antibiotics, nanoparticles (metal and metallic oxides, light-induced antibacterial agents), cationic organic agents, and others, and their recent advances are summarized. Biomaterial selection and fabrication of biomaterials with different structures and forms, including films, hydrogel, electrospun nanofibers, sponge, foam and three-dimension (3D) printed scaffold for skin regeneration, are elaborated discussed. Current challenges and the future perspectives are presented in this multidisciplinary field. We envision that this review will provide a general insight to the elegant design and further refinement of wound dressing.

Abstract
Wound management is the burning problem of modern medicine, significantly burdening developed countries’ healthcare systems. In recent years, it has become clear that the achievements of nanotechnology have introduced a new quality in wound healing. The application of nanomaterials in wound dressing significantly improves their properties and promotes the healing of injuries. Therefore, this review paper presents the subjectively selected nanomaterials used in wound dressings, including the metallic nanoparticles (NPs), and refers to the aspects of their application as antimicrobial factors. The literature review was supplemented with the results of our team’s research on the elements of multifunctional new-generation dressings containing nanoparticles. The wound healing multiple molecular pathways, mediating cell types, and affecting agents are discussed herein. Moreover, the categorization of wound dressings is presented. Additionally, some materials and membrane constructs applied in wound dressings are described. Finally, bacterial participation in wound healing and the mechanism of the antibacterial function of nanoparticles are considered. Membranes involving NPs as the bacteriostatic factors for improving wound healing of skin and bones, including our experimental findings, are discussed in the paper. In addition, some studies of our team concerning the selected bacterial strains’ interaction with material involving different metallic NPs, such as AuNPs, AgNPs, Fe3O4NPs, and CuNPs, are presented. Furthermore, nanoparticles’ influence on selected eukaryotic cells is mentioned. The ideal, universal wound dressing still has not been obtained; thus, a new generation of products have been developed, represented by the nanocomposite materials with antibacterial, anti-inflammatory properties that can influence the wound-healing process.

Abstract
Viral diseases have long been among the biggest challenges for healthcare systems around the world. The recent Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is an example of how complicated the situation can get if we are not prepared to combat a viral outbreak in time, which brings up the need for quick and affordable biosensing platforms and vast knowledge of potential antiviral effects and drug/gene delivery opportunities. The same challenges have also existed for nonviral immunogenic disorders. Nanomedicine is considered a novel candidate for effectively overcoming these worldwide challenges. Among the versatile nanomaterials commonly used in biomedical applications, graphene has recently earned much attention thanks to its special and inspiring physicochemical properties, such as its large surface area, efficient thermal/electrical properties, carbon-based chemical purity with controllable biocompatibility, easy functionalization, capability of single-molecule detection, anticancer characteristics, 3D template feature in tissue engineering, and, in particular, antibacterial/antiviral activities. In this Review, the most important and challenging viruses of our era, such as human immunodeficiency virus, Ebola, SARS-CoV-2, norovirus, and hepatitis virus, and immunogenic disorders, such as asthma, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease, in which graphene-based nanomaterials can effectively take part in the prevention, detection, treatment, medication, and health effect issues, have been covered and discussed.

Abstract
Wound healing is a multi-stage process that is dynamic, interactive, and complicated. However, many nanomaterials are employed to expedite wound healing by demonstrating antibacterial activity or boosting cell proliferation. But only one phase is focused during the wound healing process. As a result, there is a need for optimum wound dressing materials that promotes different wound healing cascades with ideal properties. Herein, Graphene Oxide loaded with vanadium (V) doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) blended with chitosan, and polyvinyl alcohol (CS/PVA/GO/TiO2-V) patch was developed for wound healing. XRD, FTIR and FE-SEM analyses were carried out to study the morphology and structural property of the patch. The fabricated patch has a high surface porosity, excellent moisture vapor transfer rate, appropriate swelling behaviour, and oxygen permeability, which results in an excellent moist environment for wound breathing and effective management of wound exudates. The antibacterial test showed significant antibacterial efficacy against wound infections in the presence of light when compared to dark. In-vitro analysis such as hemocompatibility, cytotoxicity, cell adhesion, and scratch assay show the predicted potential wound healing application with high biocompatibility. These results suggest that CS/PVA/GO/TiO2-V patch provides a microenvironment favourable to cells' growth and differentiation and positively modulates full-thickness wounds' healing.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO), for its unique structure with high biocompatibility and designability, is widely used in the antibacterial field. Various strategies have been designed to fabricate GO-based composites with antibacterial properties. This review summarized these strategies, divided them into three types and interpreted their antibacterial mechanisms: (i) "GO*/non-GO" type in which GO acts as the single antibacterial core, (ii) "GO*/non-GO*" type in which GO and non-GO components function synergistically as dual antibacterial cores, (iii) "GO/non-GO*" type in which non-GO acts as the single antibacterial core, while GO component plays a supportive, not a dominant role in antibiosis. Besides, the fields suiting their applications and factors influencing their antibacterial properties were analyzed. Finally, the limitations and prospects in the current researches were discussed. In summary, GO-based composites have revolutionized antibacterial strategies. This review may serve as a reference to inspire further research on GO-based antibacterial composites.

Abstract
The mechanical properties of artificial skins are complicated to maintain under ensuring air permeability and antimicrobial. Thus, a series of hydrophilic antimicrobial polymer networks are prepared by crosslinking chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol with the lauramidopropyl betaine and hydrogen bond organic framework (CS/PVA/LPB/2D-HOF). The mechanical performance of the control groups and the complex are systematically evaluated to attain an artificial strength skin. The CS/PVA/LPB/2D-HOF complex exhibits strong mechanical abilities than other control groups. By analyzing the IR spectra and the morphology, the synergistic effect of hydrogen bonds between molecules and cracks significantly improves the mechanical properties of the complex. Its maximum tensile strength can reach 29 MPa, and its maximum load capacity can reach 3700 g. Notably, the composite membrane also performs an excellent antimicrobial activity. In vivo and in vitro experiments show that the hybrid membrane can promote tissue regeneration and wound healing (95%). These results may open up the opportunity for future composite material investigations in the artificial skin and tissue engineering field.

Abstract
Biomimetic scaffolds engineering for improved collagen, epithelial cutaneous and fibrous tissue regeneration remains challenging for wound healing. To address these issues, this study aimed to report on the fabrication and characterization of electrospun of carboxymethyl guargum (CMGG), reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposite dressings loaded with curcumin for chronic wound healing applications. SEM and XRD examined the morphology of nanofibers and resulted in excellent porosity. TGA and FT-IR were done, which revealed the nanofibers' thermal and chemical interactions. CMGG, rGO nanocomposite with curcumin was investigated for in-vitro wound healing assay by scratch wound healing model using 3T3 L1 fibroblast cell lines and conducted in vitro drug-releasing studies. These nanocomposites showed 100% wound closure by the proliferation of fibroblast cell lines 3T3-L1 within 48 h and showed controlled drug release. Further, in vivo results also showed that the CMGG, rGO nanocomposite with curcumin has the potential wound healing effects. Histological studies showed that the CMGG, rGO nanocomposite with curcumin has the potential for wound healing, which indicates that the biomimetic CMGG nanofibers have an excellent healing effect on chronic wounds.

Abstract
The skin is the biggest organ of human body which acts as a protective barrier against deleterious agents. When this barrier is damaged, the organism promotes the healing process with several molecular and cellular mechanisms, in order to restore the physiological structure of the skin. The physiological control of wound healing depends on the correct balance among its different mechanisms. Any disruption in the balance of these mechanisms can lead to problems and delay in wound healing. The impairment of wound healing is linked to underlying factors as well as aging, nutrition, hypoxia, stress, infections, drugs, genetics, and chronic diseases. Over the years, numerous studies have been conducted to discover the correct approach and best therapies for wound healing, including surgical procedures and non-surgical treatments such as topical formulations, dressings, or skin substitutes. Thus, this general approach is necessary to facilitate the direction of further studies. This work provides updated concepts of physiological mechanisms, the factors that can interfere, and updated treatments used in skin wound healing.

Abstract
Biopolymers are materials obtained from a natural origin, such as plants, animals, microorganisms, or other living beings; they are flexible, elastic, or fibrous materials. Polysaccharides and proteins are some of the natural polymers that are widely used in wound dressing applications. In this review paper, we will provide an overview of biopolymers and synthetic polymer-based nanocomposites, which have promising applications in the biomedical research field, such as wound dressings, wound healing, tissue engineering, drug delivery, and medical implants. Since these polymers have intrinsic biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, non-toxicity, and biodegradable properties, they can be used for various clinical applications. The significant advancements in materials research, drug development, nanotechnology, and biotechnology have laid the foundation for changing the biopolymeric structural and functional properties. The properties of biopolymer and synthetic polymers were modified by blending them with nanoparticles, so that these materials can be used as a wound dressing application. Recent wound care issues, such as tissue repairs, scarless healing, and lost tissue integrity, can be treated with blended polymers. Currently, researchers are focusing on metal/metal oxide nanomaterials such as zinc oxide (ZnO), cerium oxide (CeO2), silver (Ag), titanium oxide (TiO2), iron oxide (Fe2O3), and other materials (graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNT)). These materials have good antimicrobial properties, as well as action as antibacterial agents. Due to the highly antimicrobial properties of the metal/metal oxide materials, they can be used for wound dressing applications.

Abstract
The development of hydrogel films for biomedical applications is interesting due to their characteristics. Hydrogel films based on gelatin and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) are developed and characterized using a rotatable central composite design. The optimized hydrogel film is obtained by the function desirability of the Statistica® software and is also characterized by swelling kinetics, oxygen permeability, adhesiveness, TGA, DSC, and XRD. The results of the experimental design show that gelatin and PVA concentrations have a significant influence on the response variables, and the exposure doses to UV light show no significant effect. The optimized hydrogel film is elastic, presents good mechanical resistance and swelling capacity in water and exudate solution, is permeable to oxygen, and is capable of adjusting itself and maintains contact close to the skin. In this way, considering all the properties evaluated, the optimized film has characteristics suitable for biomedical applications as wound dressings.

Abstract
Skin repair remains a common problem in plastic surgery. Wound dressing plays an important role in promoting local skin healing and has been widely studied. This study aimed to manufacture a composite film (CPCF) containing curcumin nanoparticles, collagen, and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to effectively promote the healing of skin wounds. Sustained drug release from the composite film provides long-term protection and treatment for skin wounds. Both antibacterial property and good histocompatibility of the CPCF were examined by analyzing antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity to validate its applicability for wound management. Moreover, in vivo studies proved that the CPCF had a rapid healing rate of 98.03%±0.79% and mature epithelialization on day 15 after surgery. Obvious hair follicles and earlier re-epithelialization was also noticed in the CPCF group using H&E staining. The result of Masson’s trichrome staining confirmed that CPCF could promote the formation of collagen fibers. In summary, CPCF may be promising as a wound dressing agent in wound management owing to its rapid wound-healing effects.

Abstract
Graphene-based bionanocomposites are employed in several ailments, such as cancers and infectious diseases, due to their large surface area (to carry drugs), photothermal properties, and ease of their functionalization (owing to their active groups). Modification of graphene-derivatives with polysaccharides is a promising strategy to decrease their toxicity and improve target ability, which consequently enhances their biotherapeutic efficacy. Herein, functionalization of graphene-based materials with carbohydrate polymers (e.g., chitosan, starch, alginate, hyaluronic acid, and cellulose) are presented. Subsequently, recent advances in graphene nanomaterial/polysaccharide-based bionanocomposites in infection treatment and cancer therapy are comprehensively discussed. Pharmacogenomic and toxicity assessments for these bionanocomposites are also highlighted to provide insight for future optimized and smart investigations and researches.

Abstract
Antibacterial activity and promoting wound healing are two important characteristics of ideal dressings. The previous work has successfully prepared a stem cell seeded polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel dressing, which could promote wound healing by active factors secreted from the dressing. However, a lack of antibacterial activity might limit its better application. In this study, a photo-active gelatin (Az-Gel) modified stem cell seeded bilayer PVA hydrogel dressings with silver nanoparticles loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) electrospinning films (Ag-PLGA) in it is prepared. The physical properties of the dressings show the dressings are mechanically enhanced by the addition of Ag-PLGA film. The addition of Ag-PLGA film does not alter the moisture content of PVA, but extends the moisture of the dressing. Obviously, antibacterial activity is observed and Ag-PLGA/PVA scaffold is biocompatible and low toxic to murine dermal fibroblasts (NIH-3T3). When seeded with Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), bioactive factors secreted by ADSCs could penetrate the dressing and promote cell growth and wound healing. It is speculated that the stem cells seeded bilayer dressing would be of great potential for skin tissue engineering, because of its antibacterial activity and safe application of stem cells.

Abstract
Burn is the immense public health issue globally. Low and middle income countries face extensive deaths owing to burn injuries. Availability of conventional therapies for burns has always been painful for patients as well as expensive for our health system. Pharmaceutical experts are still searching reliable, cheap, safe and effective treatment options for burn injuries. Fusidic acid is an antibiotic of choice for the management of burns. However, fusidic acid is encountering several pharmaceutical and clinical challenges like poor skin permeability and growing drug resistance against burn wound microbes like Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Therefore, an effort has been made to present a concise review about molecular pathway followed by fusidic acid in the treatment of burn wound infection in addition to associated pros and cons. Furthermore, we have also summarized chitosan and phospholipid based topical dermal delivery systems customized by our team for the delivery of fusidic acid in burn wound infections on case-to-case basis. However, every coin has two sides. We recommend the integration of in-silico docking techniques with natural biomacromolecules while designing stable, patient friendly and cost effective topical drug delivery systems of fusidic acid for the management of burn wound infection as future opportunities.
