The chemical and physical properties of γ-irradiated LMWHA and the in vitro cellular growth experiments with γ-irradiated LMWHA were analyzed. Then, hyaluronic acid exposed to 20 kGy of γ-irradiation was used to fabricate a carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/LMWHA fabric for wound dressing.

Its phytochemical composition is similar to the extracted oil from seeds, which exhibit beneficial effects for skin wound healing. Since seed shows no cyanogenic property, it could be a potential candidate for the treatment of skin wounds.

- An antiadhesion barrier membrane is crucial for preventing tissue complications post-surgery, with recent advancements showing promise in incorporating carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and hyaluronic acid (HA) for better effectiveness.
- This study focuses on creating a novel hydrogel membrane using berberine-enriched CMC from tree bark combined with HA, assessing its fabrication, strength, and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Results indicate that the new membrane effectively releases berberine, showing potential for reducing inflammation by 60%, suggesting its viability as an anti-inflammatory drug delivery system.
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) can be a potential stem cell resource for clinical cell therapy and tissue engineering. However, obtaining a sufficient number of DPSCs for repairing defects is still an issue in clinical applications. Static magnetic fields (SMFs) enhance the proliferation of several cell types.
