Description

Chronic wounds affect many people worldwide and significantly impact their quality of life. Hydrogel wound dressings are a promising option for chronic wounds due to their properties, including mild fabrication conditions, high water content, biodegradability, and bioactive molecule delivery capabilities.

Chronic wounds affect many people worldwide and significantly impact their quality of life. Hydrogel wound dressings are a promising option for chronic wounds due to their properties, including mild fabrication conditions, high water content, biodegradability, and bioactive molecule delivery capabilities. This thesis will explore the mechanisms that contribute to the wound healing properties of a bovine type I collagen-based hydrogel that incorporates platelet-rich plasma and describe how this hydrogel will be capable of effectively healing chronic wounds.
