Incheon National University Scientists Develop New Hydrogels for Wound Management

Retrieved on: 
Lunedì, Novembre 6, 2023

GWANGJU, South Korea, Nov. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Wound management is essential to ensure a speedy and safe recovery, and tissue adhesive patches are an attractive option that can replace sutures and stapling. In a recent study, researchers from Korea developed a new type of gelatin-based tissue adhesive hydrogel that locally generates oxygen through a reaction mediated by calcium peroxide, which improves the adhesiveness of the material and greatly enhances the healing process.

Key Points: 
  • Open wounds, whether caused by accidents or from medical procedures like surgery, require proper management to speed up healing and prevent infections.
  • While sutures and staples are common wound closure methods, they can cause secondary tissue injuries, potentially leaking fluids and gases and requiring anesthetics.
  • Against this backdrop, a team of researchers from Korea, led by Associate Professor Kyung Min Park of Incheon National University set out to find an effective solution to these limitations.
  • The research team has high hopes for the potential of the GOTs to become a cost-effective solution for wound management in a clinical setting.
