Article Synopsis
- This study is the first to report on caprine forestomach native collagen (CFNC) modified with silver nanowires (AgNWs) to create scaffolds intended for wound healing dressings.
- The CFNC/AgNWs scaffolds demonstrated a porous 3D structure with favorable physical and chemical properties, showing antibacterial effects and mechanical properties that varied based on AgNW concentration.
- However, higher concentrations of Ag ions were found to cause cytotoxicity in L929 fibroblast cells, indicating the need to balance antibacterial efficacy with biocompatibility when selecting AgNW dosages for optimal wound dressing performance.
