Hydrogel nanocomposite wound dressing and a method of synthesizing the same

摘要

The various embodiments herein provide hydrogel nanocomposite wound dressing comprising a polymeric basal matrix, a reinforcing agent, a biological sensor and an antibiotic for a slow release in a wound when applied. The polymeric basal matrix is made up of polyvinyl alcohol polymer with an amount of 1-15% by weight. The reinforcing agent comprises clay nanoparticles to inhibit a sudden drug release. The clay nanoparticles comprise montmorillonite nano particles with an amount of 0-2% by weight. The biological sensor is a peptide chain. The peptide chain is thrombin sensitive with an amount from 50 to 200 mg. The antibiotic is gentamycine with an amount of 1-3% by weight. The embodiments herein also provide a method of synthesizing the hydrogel nanocomposite wound dressing.
