The study aims to obtain polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride hydrogel compositions with extracts of medicinal plants growing in the Baikal region (Bergenia crassifolia, Calendula officinalis, Tussilago farfara) to evaluate sorption activity and consider the subsequent use of the compositions as an external wound healing agent. It has been shown that hydrogel sorbs mainly caffeinequinic acids in various compositions. It has been made an assumption about a link of sorption process with formation of secondary amino groups’ complex in the hexahydrotriazine cycle, which is formed as a result of gelation of PHMGhch, and carboxyl groups of extract substances. It is planned to study the wound healing activity of compositions by modeling skin damage of laboratory animals in future researches.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
