Preparation and Characterization of Chitosan/mPEG-PCL Blended Membranes for Wound Dressing and Controlled Gentamicin Release

Preparation and Characterization of Chitosan/mPEG-PCL Blended Membranes for Wound Dressing and Controlled Gentamicin Release

In this paper, a novel wound dressing membrane for controlled release of gentamicin (GE), while covering and protecting the wound was investigated. Chitosan (CHI) was associated with methoxy polyethylene glycol - polycaprolactone copolymer (mPEG-PCL) to prepare the blended wound dressing membranes....
