Hydrothermal Modification of As‐Spun Polyurethane Micro‐Nanofibers Using Silk Fibroin and Biologically Reduced Silver Nanoparticles for Efficient Hydrophilicity and Antibacterial Properties (Adv. Sustainable Syst. 10/2023)
Source abstract
Abstract
Silk Fibroins Utilizing nature's resources, in article 2300109, Faheem A. Sheikh and co-workers develop a dressing material that will not only protect from bacterial invasions but also help in faster healing. The innovation combines polyurethane fibers coated with silk fibroin, sourced from Bombyx mori cocoons, fostering rapid wound healing. Additionally, apple peel extract reduced silver nanoparticles are used for their antibacterial property.
