“…Currently, wound dressing is the most commonly applied approach to treat skin injuries. , An ideal wound dressing should possess several advantages, including mechanical strength, antibacterial activity, anti-inflammatory activity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and cost-effectiveness. − Various types of materials have been developed as wound dressings, including foams, films, nanofibers, sponges, hydrogels, and functional gauze. Among these options, natural polymer-based hydrogels have garnered increasing attention due to their excellent biocompatibility, ease of removal, and ability to maintain a physiologically moist microenvironment at the wound site. , Cellulose, chitosan, hyaluronic acid, collagen, silk fibroin (SF), alginate, gelatin, and many other natural polymers have been studied to fabricate hydrogel dressings through solvent casting, physical/chemical cross-linking, 3D printing, and self-assembly. , …”
