A New Antiseptic Dressing

Suprathel-acetic acid matrix versus acticoat and aquacel as an antiseptic dressing: an in vitro study.

BACKGROUND The treatment of burn wounds is still a challenge regarding the management of antiseptic wound conditioning. Especially, in the United States, silver-containing dressings, such as Acticoat and Aquacel are frequently used. Because silver-containing dressings have well-known drawbacks such as an antimicrobial lack against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, we sought to develop an alternative dres...

Development of a new chitosan hydrogel for wound dressing.

Wound healing is a complex process involving an integrated response by many different cell types and growth factors in order to achieve rapid restoration of skin architecture and function. The present study evaluated the applicability of a chitosan hydrogel (CH) as a wound dressing. Scanning electron microscopy analysis was used to characterize CH morphology. Fibroblast cells isolated from rat ...

A new extended discrete KP hierarchy and generalized dressing method

Abstract Inspired by the squared eigenfunction symmetry constraint, we introduce a new τk-flow by “extending” a specific tn-flow of discrete KP hierarchy (DKPH). We construct extended discrete KPH (exDKPH), which consists of tnflow, τk-flow and tn evolution of eigenfunction and adjoint eigenfunctions, and its Lax representation. The exDKPH contains two types of discrete KP equation with self-co...
