Chitosan hydrogel in combination with marine peptides from tilapia for burns healing.

The purpose of this study was to develop a promising burns dressing. Chiosan (CS) has been widely used as biomaterials, in combination with marine peptides (MPs) extracted from seawater cultured Tilapia, the newly developed material Chitosan-Marine Peptides hydrogels (CSMP) in this study showed antibacterial activity, pro-cell proliferation and migration, well burning healing. Pathological examinations by HE staining demonstrated that CSMP had pronounced wound healing efficiencies.
