Abstract
Fish gelatin (FG)-based wound dressings exhibit superior water absorption capacity, thermal stability, and gelation properties, which enhance the performance of these dressings. In this study, our objective was to investigate the conditions underlying the enzymatic hydrolysis of FG and subsequent cross-linking to prepare high-performance gels. A two-step enzymatic method of protease-catalyzed hydrolysis followed by glutamine transglutaminase (TGase)-catalyzed cross-linking was used to prepare novel high-performance fish gelatin derivatives with more stable dispersion characteristics than those of natural gelatin derivatives. Compared with conventional TGase cross-linked derivatives, the novel derivatives were characterized by an average pore size of 150 μm and increased water solubility (423.06% to 915.55%), water retention (by 3.6-fold to 43.89%), thermal stability (from 313 °C to 323 °C), and water vapor transmission rate, which reached 486.72 g·m-2·24 h-1. In addition, loading glucose oxidase onto the fish gelatin derivatives increased their antibacterial efficacy to >99% against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract
Multifunctional and biodegradable dressings with high mechanical strength and good antibacterial activity are crucial in fundamental health services. This study was initiated to prepare a novel curative wound dressing film consisting of natural biodegradable gelatin (G) and polylactic acid (PLA) with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) where glutaraldehyde (GA) was used as compatibilizer. The prepared composite films addressed the poor thermal and biological stability of G and the limited fluid retention capacity of PLA. Silver nanoparticles were prepared by basic chemical reduction and reinforced on polymer films using simple solvent casting, which obviated common clinical infections and accelerated wound closure rate (p < .05). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) studies confirmed composite formation through H-bonding and X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed increased crystallinity due to incorporating AgNPs. Films with G, PLA & GA (50:50:5 by volume) introduced the best elasticity & strength with excellent fluid retention properties (p < .05). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images unfolded surface morphology and presence of agglomerated AgNPs on film surfaces. Prepared films exhibited significant antimicrobial efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas sp. and showed excellent cell viability (>97 %) in Vero cell line. Finally, an in vivo mouse model study showed 99.7 % contraction (p < .05) within 12 days, which was most effectual and 12 % faster than conventional gauge bandages. These results demonstrated the promising and cost-effective potential of the prepared film for wound healing.

Abstract
Wounds are skin tissue damage due to trauma. Many factors inhibit the wound healing phase (hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and alteration), such as oxygenation, contamination/infection, age, effects of injury, sex hormones, stress, diabetes, obesity, drugs, alcoholism, smoking, nutrition, hemostasis, debridement, and closing time. Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer in nature which is promising as the main matrix of wound dressings because of its good structure and mechanical stability, moisturizes the area around the wound, absorbs excess exudate, can form elastic gels with the characteristics of bio-responsiveness, biocompatibility, low toxicity, biodegradability, and structural similarity with the extracellular matrix (ECM). The addition of active ingredients as a model drug helps accelerate wound healing through antimicrobial and antioxidant mechanisms. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology can print cellulose as a bioink to produce wound dressings with complex structures mimicking ECM. The 3D printed cellulose-based wound dressings are a promising application in modern wound care. This article reviews the use of 3D printed cellulose as an ideal wound dressing and their properties, including mechanical properties, permeability aspect, absorption ability, ability to retain and provide moisture, biodegradation, antimicrobial property, and biocompatibility. The applications of 3D printed cellulose in the management of chronic wounds, burns, and painful wounds are also discussed.

Abstract
The belated and compromised incisional skin wound healing caused by the invading of methicillin-resistance staphylococcus aureus is a serious problem in clinic. Designing a new therapeutic strategy to inhibit the growth of invading bacteria at post-surgical site might be helpful in fast healing of post-surgical wounds. In this study, we developed cephradine (Ceph) encapsulated chitosan and poly (3-hydroxy butyric acid-co-3-hydroxy valeric acid, (PHBV)) hybrid nanofibers (Ceph-CHP NFs) employing an electrospinning method to revamp the Ceph bioavailability at the post-surgical wound site to prevent the growth of invading bacteria and trigger the wound healing process. The fabricated nanofibers revealed smooth and uniform surface with a diameter range of 160 ± 25 to 190 ± 55 nm, depending on Ceph concentration. Further, the electrospun hybrid nanofibers exhibited a higher entrapment efficiency (EE) and drug loading capacity (DLC) nearly 72.8 ± 5.2 % and 16.5 ± 3.2 %, respectively. Moreover, the Ceph-CHP NFs showed high swelling rate and biodegradation in presence of lysozyme in contrast to blank CHP NFs. Ceph-CHP NFs exhibited fast drug release in initial few hours followed by slow and controlled drug release drug up to 48 h with a constant rate. In-vitro antimicrobial studies indicated the heightened efficacy of Ceph-CHP NFs against MRSA clinical isolates and exhibited no visible cytotoxicity against keratinocytes, HC11 and L929 cells. Lastly, Ceph-CHP NFs showed the enhanced wound healing and bacterial clearance from post-surgical wound compared to Ceph in C57BL/6 mice skin model. Overall, our results showed that Ceph-CHP NFs might be used as a promising wound dressing material for MRSA-infected post-surgical wounds.

Abstract
The treatment of wounds is a serious problem all over the world and imposes a huge financial burden on each and every nation. For a long time, researchers have explored wound dressing that speeds up wound healing. Traditional wound dressing does not respond effectively to the wound-healing process as expected. Therapeutic active derived from plant extracts and extracted bioactive components have been employed in various regions of the globe since ancient times for the purpose of illness, prevention, and therapy. About 200 years ago, most medical treatments were based on herbal remedies. Especially in the West, the usage of herbal treatments began to wane in the 1960s as a result of the rise of allopathic medicine. In recent years, however, there has been a resurgence of interest in and demand for herbal medicines for a number of reasons, including claims about their efficacy, shifting consumer preferences toward natural medicines, high costs and negative side effects of modern medicines, and advancements in herbal medicines brought about by scientific research and technological innovation. The exploration of medicinal plants and their typical uses could potentially result in advanced pharmaceuticals that exhibit reduced adverse effects. This review aims to present an overview of the utilization of nanocarriers in plant-based therapeutics, including its current status, recent advancements, challenges, and future prospects. The objective is to equip researchers with a comprehensive understanding of the historical background, current state, and potential future developments in this emerging field. In light of this, the advantages of nanocarriers based delivery of natural wound healing treatments have been discussed, with a focus on nanofibers, nanoparticles, nano-emulsion, and nanogels.

Abstract
Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), PHB, is a hydrophobic biopolymer with good mechanical and barrier properties. However, neat PHB is a semicrystalline polymer with a relative high degree of crystallinity and poor film properties. In this work, this biopolymer was plasticized with glycerol tributyrate and functionalized with copper (II) sulfate, allowing us to obtain biodegradable antimicrobial flexible films. Films with the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of copper (II) sulfate presented a higher roughness than neat PHB films. The presence of plasticizer significantly improved the copper sulfate diffusion process, which was evidenced by a greater inhibition halo for plasticized materials compared to unplasticized ones, at the same salt concentration. Plasticized PHB with 2.5% copper (II) sulfate inhibited both Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Pseudomona aeruginosa) bacteria, as determined by the bacterial inhibition halo. In addition, neat PHB films and PHB containing copper (II) sulfate did not show in vitro cytotoxicity in the L-929 cell line. Thus, plasticized PHB functionalized with copper (II) sulfate can be used as biodegradable antimicrobial flexible films for different applications.

Abstract
The current study describes a new technology, effective for readily preparing a fluorescent (FL) nanoprobe-based on hyperbranched polymer (HB) and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorogen with high brightness to ultimately develop FL hydrogels. We prepared the AIE nanoprobe using a microfluidic platform to mix hyperbranched polymers (HB, generations 2, 3, and 4) with AIE (TPE-2BA) under shear stress and different rotation speeds (0-5 K RPM) and explored the FL properties of the AIE nanoprobe. Our results reveal that the use of HB generation 4 exhibits 30-times higher FL intensity compared to the AIE alone and is significantly brighter and more stable compared to those that are prepared using HB generations 3 and 2. In contrast to traditional methods, which are expensive and time-consuming and involve polymerization and post-functionalization to develop FL hyperbranched molecules, our proposed method offers a one-step method to prepare an AIE-HB nanoprobe with excellent FL characteristics. We employed the nanoprobe to fabricate fluorescent injectable bioadhesive gel and a hydrogel microchip based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The addition of borax (50 mM) to the PVA + AIE nanoprobe results in the development of an injectable bioadhesive fluorescent gel with the ability to control AIEgen release for 300 min. When borax concentration increases two times (100 mM), the adhesion stress is more than two times bigger (7.1 mN/mm2) compared to that of gel alone (3.4 mN/mm2). Excellent dimensional stability and cell viability of the fluorescent microchip, along with its enhanced mechanical properties, proposes its potential applications in mechanobiology and understanding the impact of microstructure in cell studies.

Abstract
Wound healing is an unmet therapeutic challenge among medical society since wound assessment and management is a complex procedure including several factors playing major role in healing process. Wounds can mainly be categorized as acute or chronic. It is well referred that the acute wound displays normal wound physiology while healing, in most cases, is seemed to progress through the normal phases of wound healing. On the other hand, a chronic wound is physiologically impaired. The main problem in wound management is that the majority of wounds are colonized with microbes, whereas this does not mean that all wounds will be infected. In this review, we address the problems that clinicians face to manage while treat acute and chronic wounds. Moreover, we demonstrate the pathophysiology, etiology, prognosis and microbiology of wounds. We further introduce the state of art in pharmaceutical technology field as part of wound management aiming to assist health professionals to overcome the current implications on wound assessment. In addition, authors review researches which included the use of gels and dermal films as wound healing agents. It can be said that natural and synthetic drugs or carriers provide promising solutions in order to meet the wound management standards. However, are the current strategies as desirable as medical society wish?

Abstract
Natural hydrogels, due to their unique biological properties, have been used extensively for various medical and clinical examinations that are performed to investigate the signs of disease. Recently, complex-crosslinking strategies improved the mechanical properties and advanced approaches have resulted in the introduction of naturally derived hydrogels that exhibit high biocompatibility, with shape memory and self-healing characteristics. Moreover, the creation of self-assembled natural hydrogels under physiological conditions has provided the opportunity to engineer fine-tuning properties. To highlight recent studies of natural-based hydrogels and their applications for medical investigation, a critical review was undertaken using published papers from the Science Direct database. This review presents different natural-based hydrogels (natural, natural-synthetic hybrid and complex-crosslinked hydrogels), their historical evolution, and recent studies of medical examination applications. The application of natural-based hydrogels in the design and fabrication of biosensors, catheters and medical electrodes, detection of cancer, targeted delivery of imaging compounds (bioimaging) and fabrication of fluorescent bioprobes is summarised here. Without doubt, in future, more useful and practical concepts will be derived to identify natural-based hydrogels for a wide range of clinical examination applications.

Abstract
Accelerating the wound healing of diabetes-impaired cutaneous tissue is still a challenge due to the aberrant cellular behavior, poor angiogenesis, and pathological micro-environment. Activation with growth factors and modulation of the redox micro-environment of the diabetic wound are considered to be effective strategies. Herein, we have described a highly sulfated heparin-like polysaccharide 2-N, 6-O-sulfated chitosan (26SCS)-doped poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) scaffold (S-PLGA), which can achieve controlled and sustained release of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF) owing to its affinity for heparin-binding growth factors. Interestingly, the antioxidant effect of 26SCS was confirmed and it was shown to have a strong scavenging activity towards superoxide radicals, a moderate scavenging activity towards hydroxyl radicals and a lower scavenging activity towards hydrogen peroxide. It also exhibited stronger protective effects in a human keratinocyte cell line (Ha-cat) against H2O2-induced oxidative damage. The Ha-cat cells cultured in the presence of the S-PLGA scaffold were significantly protected against oxidative stress during proliferation. In a full thickness excisional wound model of a diabetic rat, the wound treated with the HB-EGF-loaded S-PLGA scaffold was basically healed after 28 days. Conversely, the wounds in the other diabetic groups were not closed. The migration effect of the keratinocytes was enhanced by the 26SCS-induced sustainable release of HB-EGF and the scavenging of ROS which led to rapid re-epithelialization. Furthermore, histopathological evaluation demonstrated the positive effects on wound contraction, epithelial regeneration, and collagen deposition when treated with the HB-EGF loaded S-PLGA scaffold. These findings highlight that 26SCS may serve as a promising coagent for both controlled release of growth factors and alleviation of excessive ROS production, thus leading to increased regeneration of the diabetic wounds.

Abstract
A free radical polymerization method was adopted for the fabrication of hybrid hydrogel films based on acrylamide and polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate as plasticizing and crosslinking agents, respectively, to be employed as smart skin bandages. Electro-sensitivity, biocompatibility and proteolytic properties were conferred to the final polymer networks by introducing graphene oxide (0.5% w/w), gelatin or trypsin (10% w/w) in the polymerization feed. The physical chemical and mechanical characterization of hybrid materials was performed by means of determination of protein content, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and measurement of tensile strength. The evaluation of both water affinity and curcumin release profiles (analyzed by suitable mathematical modelling) upon application of an external electric stimulation in the 0-48 voltage range, confirmed the possibility to modulate the release kinetics. Proper proteolytic tests showed that the trypsin enzymatic activity was retained by 80% upon immobilization. Moreover, for all samples, we observed a viability higher than 94% in normal human fibroblast cells (MRC-5), while a reduction of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus CFU mL-1 (90%) was obtained with curcumin loaded samples.

Abstract
Although poly vinyl alcohol-poly acrylic acid (PVA-PAA) composites have been widely used for biomedical applications, their incorporation into double-layer assembled thin films has been limited because the interfacial binding materials negatively influence the water uptake capacity of PVA. To minimize the effect of interfacial binding, a simple method for the fabrication of a double-layered PVA-PAA hydrogel was introduced, and its biomedical properties were evaluated in this study. Our results revealed that the addition of PAA layers on the surface of PVA significantly increased the swelling properties. Compared to PVA, the equilibrium swelling ratio of the PVA-PAA hydrogel increased (p = 0.035) and its water vapour permeability significantly decreased (p = 0.04). Statistical analysis revealed that an increase in pH value from 7 to 10 as well as the addition of PAA at pH = 7 significantly increased the adhesion force (p < 0.04). The mechanical properties-including ultimate tensile strength, modulus, and elongation at break-remained approximately untouched compared to PVA. A significant increase in biocompatibility was found after day 7 (p = 0.016). A higher release rate for tetracycline was found at pH = 8 compared to neutral pH.

Abstract
Interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) hydrogels composed of gelatin and hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) were prepared by successive enzymatic and chemical crosslinking approaches. The hydrogels displayed porous structure and the pore size decreased with the increase of HPC content. Due to the entanglement and interpenetrating between the two crosslinked networks, the IPN hydrogels exhibited excellent mechanical strength and light transmittance. The maximum tensile and tear strengths of the IPN hydrogels reached 3.1 and 5.2MPa, respectively. The water vapor permeability of the IPN hydrogels was within the acceptable range to maintain appropriate moisture for wound healing. The cytotoxicity evaluation indicated that the IPN hydrogels exhibited no toxicity to fibroblast cells. In addition, the hydrogels were loaded with chloramphenicol by pre-soaking in drug solutions to evaluate drug-loading capacity and in vitro release behavior. It was found that the drug loaded hydrogels could act as drug delivery devices to create microbe free microenvironment, which was advantageous for wound healing.

Abstract
Hydrogel/honey hybrids manifest an attractive design with an exclusive therapeutic property that promotes wound healing process. The greater the concentration of honey within the formulation, the better the biomedical properties that will be achieved. However, an increase in the percentage of honey can negatively affect the physico-chemical and mechanical properties of hybrid hydrogels. The need exists, therefore, to prepare wound dressings that contain high honey density with optimal biomedical, mechanical and physicochemical properties. In this study, a simple method for the preparation of a highly concentrated honey/PVA hybrid hydrogel with borax as the crosslinking agent is reported. Comprehensive evaluations of the morphology, swelling kinetics, permeability, bio-adhesion, mechanical characteristics, cytotoxicity, antibacterial property, cell proliferation ability and their controlling release properties were conducted as a function of crosslinking density. All the borax-induced hydrogels showed acceptable biocompatibility, and the incorporation of 1% borax in the hydrogel formulation produced optimal behaviours for wound addressing applications.
