      <p><i>Background</i> An efficient treatment is crucial to overcome the delayed healing process and high infection rate in chronic wounds. Nanofibrous dressings, having a nano‐sized fiber structure, can enhance cell ingrowth and support the healing process. In addition, nanofibers can deliver active ingredients e.g. antibiotics into the wound to treat wound infection. By incorporating broad‐spectrum ...
    • Multifunctional Nanofibrous Dressing with Antimicrobial and Anti-Inflammatory Properties Prepared by Needle-Free Electrospinning 

      Schulte Werning, Laura; Murugaiah, Anjanah; Singh, Bhupender; Johannessen, Mona; Engstad, Rolf Einar; Skalko-Basnet, Natasa; Holsæter, Ann Mari (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-21)
      An active wound dressing should address the main goals in wound treatment, which are improved wound healing and reduced infection rates. We developed novel multifunctional nanofibrous wound dressings with three active ingredients: chloramphenicol (CAM), beta-glucan (βG) and chitosan (CHI), of which βG and CHI are active nanofiber-forming biopolymers isolated from the cell walls of Saccharomyces ...
