Abstract
Recurrent oral ulcers are common oral mucosal lesions that severely reduce patients' quality of life. Commercial mucoadhesive films are easily disrupted due to oral movement and complex wet environments, thus reducing drug utilization and even causing toxic side effects. Herein, we report a mucoadhesive film composed of Ca2+-crosslinked carboxymethylated cellulose nanofibers and alginate, in which two drugs of dexamethasone (DXM) and dyclonine hydrochloride (DYC) are loaded for the treatment of oral ulcers. The wet films have a high Young's modulus of 7.1 ± 2.6 MPa and a large strain of 53.6 ± 9.8 % and adhere to tissue strongly, which allows them to resist the deformation caused by frequent oral movement. The films also have nice durability against water and excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, the drug release was controlled at different rates. The fast release of DYC facilitates the quick relief of pain, while the slow release of DXM benefits the long-term treatment of wounds. Finally, the animal experiment demonstrates the films displayed excellent therapeutic efficacy in healing oral ulcers.

Study on synergistic mechanism of molybdenum disulfide/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose composite nanofiber mats for photothermal/photodynamic antibacterial treatment. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:130838. [PMID: 38521322 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130838] [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: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Innovative antibacterial therapies using nanomaterials, such as photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic (PDT) treatments, have been developed for treating wound infections. However, creating secure wound dressings with these therapies faces challenges. The primary focus of this study is to prepare an antibacterial nanofiber dressing that effectively incorporates stable loads of functional nanoparticles and demonstrates an efficient synergistic effect between PTT and PDT. Herein, a composite nanofiber mat was fabricated, integrating spherical molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanoparticles. MoS2 was deposited onto polylactic acid (PLA) nanofiber mats using vacuum filtration, which was further stabilized by sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) adhesion and glutaraldehyde (GA) cross-linking. The composite nanofibers demonstrated synergistic antibacterial effects under NIR light irradiation, and the underlying mechanism was explored. They induce bacterial membrane permeability, protein leakage, and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) elevation, ultimately leading to >95 % antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli), which is higher than that of single thermotherapy (almost no antibacterial activity) or ROS therapy (about 80 %). In addition, the composite nanofiber mats exhibited promotion effects on infected wound healing in vivo. This study demonstrates the great prospects of composite nanofiber dressings in clinical treatment of bacterial-infected wounds.

Abstract
Hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) is used as a food additive in China due to its outstanding antibacterial properties. It is listed as GRAS grade (generally recognized as safe) by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA, US) and has been extensively researched and used in food preservation. And the industrial production of HEWL already been realized. Given the complex food system that can affect the antibacterial activity of HEWL, and the limitations of HEWL itself on Gram-negative bacteria. Based on the structure and main biological characteristics of HEWL, this paper focuses on reviewing methods to enhance the stability and antibacterial properties of HEWL. Immobilization tactics such as chemically driven self-assembly, embedding and adsorption address the restriction of poor HEWL antibacterial activity effected by external factors. Both intermolecular and intramolecular modification strategies break the bactericidal deficiencies of HEWL itself. It also comprehensively analyzes the current application status and future prospects of HEWL in the food preservation. There was limited research on the biological methods in modifying HEWL. If the HEWL is genetically engineered, it can broaden its antimicrobial spectrum, improve its other biological activities, so as to further expand its application in the food industry. At present, research on HEWL mainly focused on its antibacterial properties, whereas its application in anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects also presented great potential.

Abstract
Bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties enable easier and safer treatment of wounds as compared to the traditional methods such as suturing and stapling. Composed of natural or synthetic polymers, these bioadhesives seal wounds and facilitate healing while preventing infections through the activity of locally released antimicrobial drugs, nanocomponents, or inherently antimicrobial polers. Although many different materials and strategies are employed to develop antimicrobial bioadhesives, the design of these biomaterials necessitates a prudent approach as achieving all the required properties including optimal adhesive and cohesive properties, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial activity can be challenging. Designing antimicrobial bioadhesives with tunable physical, chemical, and biological properties will shed light on the path for future advancement of bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties. In this review, the requirements and commonly used strategies for developing bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties are discussed. In particular, different methods for their synthesis and their experimental and clinical applications on a variety of organs are reviewed. Advances in the design of bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties will pave the way for a better management of wounds to increase positive clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Mucus is a viscoelastic hydrogel that lines and protects the epithelial surfaces of the body that houses commensal microbiota and functions in host defense against pathogen invasion. As a first-line physical and biochemical barrier, intestinal mucus is involved in immune surveillance and spatial organization of the microbiome, while dysfunction of the gut mucus barrier is implicated in several diseases. Mucus can be collected from a variety of mammalian sources for study, however, established methods are challenging in terms of scale and efficiency, as well as with regard to rheological similarity to native human mucus. Therefore, there is a need for mucus-mimetic hydrogels that more accurately reflect the physical and chemical profile of the in vivo human epithelial environment to enable the investigation of the role of mucus in human disease and interactions with the intestinal microbiome. This review will evaluate the material properties of synthetic mucus mimics to date designed to address the above need, with a focus toward an improved understanding of the biochemical and immunological functions of these biopolymers related to utility for research and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Periodontal regeneration is extremely limited and unpredictable due to structural complications, as it requires the simultaneous restoration of different tissues, including cementum, gingiva, bone, and periodontal ligament. In this work, spray-dried microparticles based on green materials (polysaccharides - gums - and a protein - silk fibroin) are proposed to be implanted in the periodontal pocket as 3D scaffolds during non-surgical treatments, to prevent the progression of periodontal disease and to promote the healing in mild periodontitis. Arabic or xanthan gum have been associated to silk fibroin, extracted from Bombyx mori cocoons, and loaded with lysozyme due to its antibacterial properties. The microparticles were prepared by spray-drying and cross-linked by water vapor annealing, inducing the amorphous to semi-crystalline transition of the protein component. The microparticles were characterized in terms of their chemico-physical features (SEM, size distribution, structural characterization - FTIR and SAXS, hydration and degradation properties) and preclinical properties (lysozyme release, antibacterial properties, mucoadhesion, in vitro cells adhesion and proliferation and in vivo safety on a murine incisional wound model). The encouraging preclinical results highlighted that these three-dimensional (3D) microparticles could provide a biocompatible platform able to prevent periodontitis progression and to promote the healing of soft tissues in mild periodontitis.

Int J Pharm 2023; 640:122990. [PMID: 37127138 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.122990] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Intranasal vaccination by directly applying a vaccine dry powder is appealing. However, a method that can be used to transform a vaccine from a liquid to a dry powder and a device that can be used to administer the powder to the desired region(s) of the nasal cavity are critical for successful intranasal vaccination. In the present study, using a model vaccine that contains liposomal monophosphoryl lipid A and QS-21 adjuvant (AdjLMQ) and ovalbumin (OVA) as a model antigen, it was shown that thin-film freeze-drying can be applied to convert the liquid vaccine containing sucrose at a sucrose to lipid ratio of 15:1 (w/w) into dry powders, in the presence or absence of carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt (CMC) as a mucoadhesive agent. Ultimately, the thin-film freeze-dried AdjLMQ/OVA vaccine powder containing 1.9% (w/w) of CMC (i.e., TFF AdjLMQ/OVA/CMC1.9% powder) was selected for additional evaluation because the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA/CMC1.9% powder was mucoadhesive and maintained the integrity of the antigen and the physical properties of the vaccine. Compared to the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA powder that did not contain CMC, the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA/CMC1.9% powder had a lower moisture content and a higher glass transition temperature. In addition, the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA/CMC1.9% thin films were relatively thicker than the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA thin films without CMC. When sprayed with Aptar Pharma's Unidose Powder Nasal Spray System (UDSP), the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA powder and the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA/CMC1.9% powder generated similar particle size distribution curves, spray patterns, and plume geometries. Importantly, after the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA/CMC1.9% powder was sprayed with the UDSP nasal device, the integrity of the OVA antigen and the AdjLMQ liposomes did not change. Finally, a Taguchi L4 orthogonal array was applied to identify the optimal parameters for using the UDSP device to deliver the TFF AdjLMQ/OVA/CMC1.9% vaccine powder to the middle and lower turbinate and the nasopharynx regions in both adult and child nasal replica casts. Results from this study showed that it is feasible to apply the TFF technology to transform a nasal vaccine candidate from liquid to a dry powder and then use the UDSP nasal device to deliver the TFF vaccine powder to the desired regions in the nasal cavity for intranasal vaccination.

Abstract
The potential of the mucoadhesive film technology is hard to ignore, owing to perceived superior patient acceptability versus buccal tablets, and significant therapeutic opportunities compared to conventional oral drug delivery systems, especially for those who suffer from dysphagia. In spite of this, current translation from published literature into the commercial marketplace is virtually non-existent, with no authorised mucoadhesive buccal films available in the UK and very few available in the USA. This review seeks to provide an overview of the mucoadhesive buccal film technology and identify key areas upon which to focus scientific efforts to facilitate the wider adoption of this patient-centric dosage form. Several indications and opportunities for development were identified, while discussing the patient-related factors influencing the use of these dosage forms. In addition, an overview of the technologies behind the manufacturing of these films was provided, highlighting manufacturing methods like solvent casting, hot melt extrusion, inkjet printing and three-dimensional printing. Over thirty mucoadhesive polymers were identified as being used in film formulations, with details surrounding their mucoadhesive capabilities as well as their inclusion alongside other key formulation constituents provided. Lastly, the importance of physiologically relevant in vitro evaluation methodologies was emphasised, which seek to improve in vivo correlations, potentially leading to better translation of mucoadhesive buccal films from the literature into the commercial marketplace.

Abstract
Packaging plays an important role in food quality and safety, especially regarding waste and spoilage reduction. The main drawback is that the packaging industry is among the ones that is highly dependent on plastic usage. New alternatives to conventional plastic packaging such as biopolymers-based type are mandatory. Examples are cellulose films and its derivatives. These are among the most used options in the food packaging due to their unique characteristics, such as biocompatibility, environmental sustainability, low price, mechanical properties, and biodegradability. Emerging concepts such as active and intelligent packaging provides new solutions for an extending shelf-life, and it fights some limitations of cellulose films and improves the properties of the packaging. This article reviews the available cellulose polymers and derivatives that are used as sustainable alternatives for food packaging regarding their properties, characteristics, and functionalization towards active properties enhancement. In this way, several types of films that are prepared with cellulose and their derivatives, incorporating antimicrobial and antioxidant compounds, are herein described, and discussed.

Abstract
Oral ulcers affect oral and systemic health and have high prevalence in the population. There are significant individual differences in the etiology and extent of the disease among patients. In the treatment of oral ulcers, nanofiber films can control the drug-release rate and enable long-term local administration. Compared to other drug-delivery methods, nanofiber films avoid the disadvantages of frequent administration and certain side effects. Electrospinning is a simple and effective method for preparing nanofiber films. Currently, electrospinning technology has made significant breakthroughs in energy-saving and large-scale production. This paper summarizes the polymers that enable oral mucosal adhesion and the active pharmaceutical ingredients used for oral ulcers. Moreover, the therapeutic effects of currently available electrospun nanofiber films on oral ulcers in animal experiments and clinical trials are investigated. In addition, solvent casting and cross-linking methods can be used in conjunction with electrospinning techniques. Based on the literature, more administration systems with different polymers and loading components can be inspired. These administration systems are expected to have synergistic effects and achieve better therapeutic effects. This not only provides new possibilities for drug-loaded nanofibers but also brings new hope for the treatment of oral ulcers.

Eur J Pharm Sci 2022; 168:106085. [PMID: 34856348 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2021.106085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2021] [Revised: 10/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
This paper describes the development of a film comprising chitosan (CS), sodium alginate (SA), and ethyl cellulose (EC) for buccal mucosal administration. A film of CS-SA unidirectional release drug-containing water-repellent layer EC was produced by interfacial reaction solvent-drying technique using self-made equipment. The CS-SA-EC film had superior mechanical properties compared to CS-EC and SA-EC films. The existence of the amide bond was confirmed by FT-IR. DSC confirmed that the drug was dispersed in the carrier material in an amorphous form. The drug release studies emerged that the model drugs from CS-SA-EC films presented better release properties. The Ritger-Peppas model best describes all ratios of drugs release mechanisms. The permeability characteristics of the films were evaluated in the TR146 cells model and the rabbit buccal mucosae. The cumulative penetration amounts of the model drugs were significantly increased. The permeability mechanism of the film was studied preliminarily using immunofluorescence and Western Blot. The results showed that the film inhibited the expression of ZO-1 protein, and the expressive trend of ZO-1 protein was consistent with the results of in vitro permeation experiments. The pharmacokinetics of the drugs loaded films were evaluated and compared with oral administration in rats. The relative bioavailability of the model drugs was 246.00% (Zolmitriptan) and 142.12% (Etodolac) relative to oral administration. The results of this study demonstrate the potential of CS-SA-EC vehicle in buccal mucosa drug delivery.

Abstract
Lysozyme is a ~14 kDa protein present in many mucosal secretions (tears, saliva, and mucus) and tissues of animals and plants, and plays an important role in the innate immunity, providing protection against bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Three main different types of lysozymes are known: the c-type (chicken or conventional type), the g-type (goose type), and the i-type (invertebrate type). It has long been the subject of several applications due to its antimicrobial properties. The problem of antibiotic resistance has stimulated the search for new molecules or new applications of known compounds. The use of lysozyme as an alternative antibiotic is the subject of this review, which covers the results published over the past two decades. This review is focused on the applications of lysozyme in medicine, (the treatment of infectious diseases, wound healing, and anti-biofilm), veterinary, feed, food preservation, and crop protection. It is available from a wide range of sources, in addition to the well-known chicken egg white, and its synergism with other compounds, endowed with antimicrobial activity, are also summarized. An overview of the modified lysozyme applications is provided in the form of tables.

Abstract
Bioadhesive polymers offer versatility to medical and pharmaceutical inventions. The incorporation of such materials to conventional dosage forms or medical devices may confer or improve the adhesivity of the bioadhesive systems, subsequently prolonging their residence time at the site of absorption or action and providing sustained release of actives with improved bioavailability and therapeutic outcomes. For decades, much focus has been put on scientific works to replace synthetic polymers with biopolymers with desirable functional properties. Gelatine has been considered one of the most promising biopolymers. Despite its biodegradability, biocompatibility and unique biological properties, gelatine exhibits poor mechanical and adhesive properties, limiting its end-use applications. The chemical modification and blending of gelatine with other biomaterials are strategies proposed to improve its bioadhesivity. Here we discuss the classical approaches involving a variety of polymer blends and composite systems containing gelatine, and gelatine modifications via thiolation, methacrylation, catechol conjugation, amination and other newly devised strategies. We highlight several of the latest studies on these strategies and their relevant findings.

Mucoadhesive Delivery System: A Smart Way to Improve Bioavailability of Nutraceuticals. Foods 2021; 10:foods10061362.

Abstract
The conventional oral administration of many nutraceuticals exhibits poor oral bioavailability due to the harsh gastric conditions and first-pass metabolism. Oral mucosa has been recognized as a potential site for the delivery of therapeutic compounds. The mucoadhesive formulation can adhere to the mucosal membrane through various interaction mechanisms and enhance the retention and permeability of bioactive compounds. Absorption of bioactive compounds from the mucosa can improve bioavailability, as this route bypasses the hepatic first-pass metabolism and transit through the gastrointestinal tract. The mucosal administration is convenient, simple to access, and reported for increasing the bioactive concentration in plasma. Many mucoadhesive polymers, emulsifiers, thickeners used for the pharmaceutical formulation are accepted in the food sector. Introducing mucoadhesive formulations specific to the nutraceutical sector will be a game-changer as we are still looking for different ways to improve the bioavailability of many bioactive compounds. This article describes the overview of buccal mucosa, the concept of mucoadhesion and related theories, and different techniques of mucoadhesive formulations. Finally, the classification of mucoadhesive polymers and the mucoadhesive systems designed for the effective delivery of bioactive compounds are presented.

Abstract
Biohybrid colloids were fabricated based on electrostatic complexation between anionic TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TO-CNF) and cationic hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL). By altering the loading of HEWL, physical colloidal complexes can be obtained at a relatively low concentration of TO-CNF (0.1 wt%). At neutral pH, increasing the HEWL loading induces an increase in charge screening, as probed by zeta-potential, resulting in enhanced TO-CNF aggregation and colloidal gel formation. Systematic rheological testing shows that mechanical reinforcement of the prepared biohybrid gels is easily achieved by increasing the loading of HEWL. However, due to the relatively weak nature of electrostatic complexation, the formed colloidal gels exhibit partial destruction when subjected to cyclic shear stresses. Still, they resist thermo-cycling up to 90 °C. Finally, the pH responsiveness of the colloidal complex gels was demonstrated by adjusting pH to above and below the isoelectric point of HEWL, representing a facile mechanism to tune the gelation of TO-CNF/HEWL complexes. This work highlights the potential of using electrostatic complexation between HEWL and TO-CNF to form hybrid colloids, and demonstrates the tunability of the colloidal morphology and rheology by adjusting the ratio between the two components and the pH.

Abstract
The prevalence of periodontal disease poses a significant global health burden. Treatments for these diseases, primarily focused on removal and eradication of dental plaque biofilms, are challenging due to limited access to periodontal pockets where these oral pathogens reside. Herein, we report on the development and characterization of nitric oxide (NO)-releasing carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) derivatives and evaluate their in vitro bactericidal efficacy against planktonic Porphyromonas gingivalis and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, two prominent periodontopathogens. Bactericidal exposure assays revealed that three of the synthesized NO-releasing polymers were capable of reducing bacterial viability of both species by 99.9% in 2 hr at concentrations of 4 mg ml-1 or lower, reflecting NO's potent and rapid bactericidal action. The NO-releasing CMCs elicited minimal toxicity to human gingival fibroblasts at their bactericidal concentrations following 24-hr exposure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This paper provides a critical review of biopolymer-based substrates, especially the cellulose derivatives, for their application in buccal drug delivery. Drug delivery to the buccal mucous has the benefits of immobile muscle, abundant vascularization and rapid recovery, but not all the drugs can be administered through the buccal mucosa (e.g., macromolecular drugs), due to the low bioavailability caused by their large molecular size. This shortfall inspired the rapid development of drug-compounding technologies and the corresponding usage of biopolymer substrates. METHODS Cellulose derivatives have been extensively developed for drug manufacturing to facilitate its delivery. We engaged in structured research of cellulose-based drug compounding technologies. We summarized the characteristic cellulose derivatives which have been used as the biocompatible substrates in buccal delivery systems. The discussion of potential use of the rapidly-developed nanocellulose (NC) is also notable in this paper. RESULTS Seventy-eight papers were referenced in this perspective paper with the majority (sixty-five) published later than 2010. Forty-seven papers defined the buccal drug delivery systems and their substrates. Fifteen papers outlined the properties and applications of cellulose derivatives. Nanocellulose was introduced as a leading edge of nanomaterial with sixteen papers highlighted its adaptability in drug compounding for buccal delivery. CONCLUSION The findings of this perspective paper proposed the potential use of cellulose derivatives, the typical kind of biopolymers, in the buccal drug delivery system for promoting the bioavailability of macromolecular drugs. Nanocellulose (NC) in particular was proposed as an innovative bio-binder/carrier for the controlled-release of drugs in buccal system.

Abstract
Lysozyme is particularly attractive for the local treatment of oral pathologies related to microbiological infections. However, the requirement of a prolonged release is difficult to achieve because of saliva swallowing and of the protein denaturation which can occur during production and storage of a dosage form. This work demonstrates the feasibility to prepare lysozyme mucoadhesive tablets by freeze-drying. Tablets were prepared by using alginate (ALG) physically "cross-linked" with calcium ion and different grades of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) (i.e., E5, E50, or K100). The tablets were characterized in terms of swelling or erosion behavior, in vitro mucoadhesive properties, lysozyme activity (Micrococcus lysodeikticus), drug release and ability to inactivate Staphylococcus aureus. The formulations prepared with HPMC K100 were discarded because of the fast erosion. All other formulations allowed a sustained release over at least 6 h. Independently of composition, lysozyme activity (78,311 ± 1873 Units/mg) significantly decreased in the case of tablets containing 5% and 10% w/w of protein (55,000 Units/mg and 33,000 Units/mg, respectively). Conversely, no modifications occurred in the case of tablets containing 1% w/w lysozyme. The formulation prepared by ALG/HPMC E5 7/3 ratio was efficacious against S. aureus. After 3 months of storage at 5 ± 3°C, no significant decrease in lysozyme activity was observed.

Abstract
Naturally-derived biopolymers such as alginate, chitosan, cellulose, agarose, guar gum/guaran, agar, carrageenan, gelatin, dextran, xanthan, and pectins, etc. have appealed significant attention over the past several years owing to their natural abundance and availability all over the years, around the globe. In addition, their versatile properties such as non-toxicity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, flexibility, renewability, and the availability of numerous reactive sites offer significant functionalities with multipurpose applications. At present, intensive research efforts have been focused on engineering enzymes using natural biopolymers as novel support/composite materials for diverse applications in biomedical, environmental, pharmaceutical, food and biofuel/energy sectors. Immobilization appears as a straightforward and promising approach to developing biocatalysts with improved catalytic properties as compared to their free counterparts. Biopolymers-assisted enzymes are more stable, robust, and recoverable than that of free forms, and can be employed for continuous biocatalytic reactions. The present review highlights the recent developments and use of biopolymers and their advanced composites as support carriers for the immobilization of a variety of different enzymes to develop biocatalysts with desired catalytic activity and stability characteristics for emerging applications.

Physical and chemical methods were used to characterize the materials, and the function of the materials was evaluated by in vivo and in vitro experiments. Results Antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was ordered D > C > B ≈ A (P<0.05). Healing rates in the control, A, B, C, and D groups were 30.6%, 48.3%, 56.7%, 70.9%, and 79.2%, respectively at 7 days after injury. The lengths of new epithelia of the wound surface were ordered D > C > B ≈ A > control (P<0.05). Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction showed that expression of Wnt3a, β-catenin, and PCNA mRNA were ordered D > C > B ≈ A > control (P<0.05). The order of expression of PCNA was D > C > B ≈ A > control (P<0.05). There were no differences in GSK3β expression (P>0.05). The order of expression of axin was D < C < B ≈ A < control (P<0.05). The cell-migration rate at 24 hours was ordered D > C > B ≈ A > control (P<0.05). Conclusion This translucent balsa-modified lysozyme dressing is characterized by strong antibacterial properties, stable and persistent release, no cytotoxicity, and capacity to promote antibacterial ability and epithelial growth, as well as cell proliferation and migration.

Abstract
This study aims to prepare an eco-friendly dressing using a balsa derived membrane with lysozyme included for anti-bacterial purposes. The balsa-lysozyme was prepared using delignification (control) and dopamine (group A) methods for mussel-inspired adhesion of 5, 10, 15 and 20 mg ml-1 lysozyme (groups B, C, D and E). Fourier infrared spectra and the contact angle test showed that lysozyme adhered to the membrane. With increasing concentration of lysozyme, the drug-loading rate of balsa-lysozyme increased and the encapsulation efficiency decreased (P < 0.05). The cumulative release percentages after 72 h were 80.7%, 90.6%, 91.4%and 92.3% in groups B, C, D and E, respectively. There was a significant in vitro antibacterial effect against both E. coli and S. aureus. The cytotoxicity of the wood dressing was not detected until day 7. On day 7, the healing rates were 30.7%, 38.3%, 50.7%, 61.2%, 61.9% and 62.4% for the control, A, B, C, D and E group (P < 0.05). Similarly, the lengths of the new epithelium were 631.7 μm, 702.5 μm, 759.4 μm, 825.3 μm, 831.7 μm and 836.6 μm for the control group, A, B, C, and D, E respectively (P < 0.05). Furthermore, PCNA and CD31 expression indicated enhanced cell proliferation and angiogenesis in the C, D and E group (P < 0.05).
