Prevention of Postoperative Adhesion Bands by Alkali-treated Cellulosic Luffa Fibers

Prevention of Postoperative Adhesion Bands by Alkali-treated Cellulosic Luffa Fibers

The formation of postsurgical intra-abdomen adhesion bands can cause severe complications. The luffa fibers were alkali treated to produce the desire hydrophobic and microfibrous structure. The scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction results have demonstrated that this treatment furnished...
