Article Synopsis
- Protein-based biomaterials like amyloids are gaining attention for their strength and compatibility, leading to the creation of a new hydrogel made from bovine serum albumin and aloe vera gel to enhance the mechanical properties while utilizing aloe’s medicinal benefits.
- This composite hydrogel has a porous structure, is non-toxic, and exhibits antioxidant and antibacterial qualities that help in faster wound healing, as confirmed by experiments on fibroblast cells and diabetic mice.
- Additionally, the hydrogel can be 3D printed for customized applications in wound care, showing potential as a bio-ink in tissue engineering for effective skin regeneration.
