“…It has been proved that combing KGM improved the thermal stability of a blend 19 ; the stronger the interactions amongst components, the higher the thermal stability. 20 Similarly, when heated to 350°C, TG analysis revealed a higher residue mass of blend hydrogel than K and B, with BK2-2 having the highest residue (Figure 2(a)), indicating increased thermal stability generated by the interactions between BSP and KGM, and the interactions were much stronger in BK2-2, as confirmed by FTIR with the maximum blue shift obtained in BK2-2 spectrum (Figure 3).…”

Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP) is effective for wound healing and has important applications in health care. A series of blend hydrogels was designed with BSP and konjac glucomannan (KGM) in this study to overcome the deficient mechanical performance caused by the excessive dissolution of BSP without affecting its physiological activity. The interplay between them, as well as the effects of KGM concentration on the physical properties and microstructures of hydrogels, were also explored. It was proved that the frame of the hydrogel was primarily formed by KGM. BSP was dispersed uniformly and linked to KGM through hydrogen bonding, which effectively improved the physical properties, such as increasing the water-holding capacity, improving the swelling degree, and enhancing the mechanical properties. Blend hydrogel BK2-2 (containing 1.0% BSP and 1.0% KGM, w/v) was found to be the optimal formulation based on the thermal stability and microstructure, which was used for further research. In vitro experiments revealed the L929 cell proliferative effects of the blend hydrogel, and no difference was found with BSP sponge extract after 72 h of exposure. In vivo animal studies indicated that the BK2-2 accelerated wound healing compared with the control group; however, no difference was found with dressings only made of BSP. These results demonstrated that KGM improved the physical properties of BSP-based material without negatively affecting its physiological properties. Also, the BSP/KGM blend hydrogel had good comprehensive properties and is expected to be used as a wound healing material in the future.

“…Likewise the peak at about 1456 cm À1 (-CH 2 in-plane bending) 34 shifted to lower wavenumbers with increasing BSP concentration in blend hydrogel B2Cd4, B3Cd3 and B4Cd2. Meanwhile, the peak intensity at about 2848 cm À1 (C-H stretching vibration) 35 decreased in blend hydrogels B5Cd1, B4Cd2, and particularly in B3Cd3. These changes indicate intermolecular interactions between BSP and curdlan in these formulations, and those interactions might be stronger in B3Cd3 than others, consistent with the results of TGA, WHC, SD and SEM.…”

Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP) was added to curdlan to form a blend hydrogel through a simple heating-cooling procedure to improve the hydrophilicity and healing efficacy of curdlan-based hydrogel used in wound healing. We explored the interplay between BSP and curdlan, studied how BSP concentration affects the physical properties and microstructures of hydrogels, and examined the biocompatibility and healing properties of the blend hydrogel. It was proved that the hydrogel framework was primarily formed by ordered arranged curdlan molecules, with BSP uniformly dispersed and intertwined with curdlan through hydrogen bonding. This effectively improved its hydrophilicity and strengthened the microstructure. Curdlan was found to be compatible with BSP. The blend hydrogel B3Cd3 (containing 1.5% BSP and 1.5% curdlan, w/v) was identified as the optimal formulation based on its higher water adsorption, water retention, thermal stability and interconnected microstructure, and was thus selected for further research. In vitro experiments revealed the highest cell viability of L929 in B3Cd3 extracts compared to those extracts of single-component curdlan hydrogel (Cd). In vivo, animal studies indicated that the B3Cd3 accelerated wound healing compared to the control group by improving re-epithelialization and blood vessel regeneration. On Days 3 and 11, the therapeutic benefits of B3Cd3 exceeded those of the Cd group, and no significant differences were observed in wound healing rates between the B and B3Cd3 groups from Day 7. The study proves that BSP enhances the physical and healing properties, as well as cell proliferation, of the curdlan-based hydrogel. The blend hydrogel B3Cd3, with its exceptional properties, holds potential for future application as a material for non-infected wound healing.
