  • Cellulose and chitin nanofibers [Elektronski vir] : potential applications on wound healing
    Johnson, Athira ...
    Wound healing is a complex and natural process in all living organism as a restorative response to tissue injury. After damage, the healing process is passed through various stage of regeneration ... such as blood clotting, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. The processing time is depends upon the nature of wound. Honey, animal fat, and herb extract were used in the ancient time to cure the wound. But with the drastic progress in science and technology, the all existing concept has been changed. Recent studies on wound healing mechanism prove that biopolymers like cellulose and chitin have the ability to healing the wound. This kind of biopolymers and its derivatives opens up a plethora for researchers for wound healing applications. Principles of science and technology have an important role in the area of biomedical research, which leads to the relevance of nanotechnology in this field. This Chapter discusses the importance of nano cellulose, chitin, and its derivatives on wound healing applications.
