摘要

Compositions which self-assemble under physiological conditions are formulatedfor application to wounds. The formulations include peptidomimetics selectedfrom thegroup consisting of .beta.- peptides, .gamma.- peptides, and .delta.-peptides. The formulation may beapplied to repair an injury or during surgery. In some cases, the formulationmay beapplied in a solid form (e.g. bandage, powder, sponge, etc.) or a liquid form(gel, spray,foam, etc.) to control movement of bodily fluids and or contaminants.
