| Summary: | Objective(s): Gelatin / Sodium Alginate Thymus kotschyanus (GE/SA T. kotschyanus) hydrogel was prepared for use as a wound healing.Materials and Methods: The hydrogel was prepared by casting and cross-linking method and the physicochemical and the antimicrobial properties of the hydrogels were determined.Results: The GE/SA hydrogel showed high mechanical properties, while the addition of the extract to the hydrogel led to the relaxation of the polymer network and thus increased the elasticity of the dressing, and it had a good biodegradation. The compatibility of hydrogels with fibroblast cells was confirmed by MTT assay. Also, GE/SA T. kotschyanus hydrogels were found to be excellent Hemocompatibile. Moreover, these hydrogels exhibited the antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli. In addition, these hydrogels showed the best antifungal effect against Candida albicans.Conclusion: The GE/SA T. kotschyanus hydrogels had the potential for use in wound dressing. |
