Antibacterial and hemostatic capacities of cellulose nanocrystalline-reinforced poly(vinyl alcohol) electrospun mats doped with Tiger 17 and pexiganan peptides for prospective wound healing applications

Infection is a major issue in chronic wound care. Different dressings have been developed to prevent microbial propagation, but an effective, all-in-one (cytocompatible, antimicrobial and promoter of healing) solution is still to be uncovered. In this research, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibrous ma...
