Abstract:
Burns have placed a devastating burden on public health because of leading to an increased risk of infection. Therefore, the development of an effective antibacterial dressing for wound healing is essential. The present work is mainly based on the fabrication of biodegradable polycaprolactone (PCL) films through a simple and cheap process of polymer casting using a novel combination of hydroxyapatite (HAP), cuprous oxide (Cu2O) NPs and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets which have a great effect in preventing colonization and to modify the wound dreasing. The compositions played a key role in decreasing the contact angle of PCL from 47.02° to 11.53°. Further, the cell viability exhibited a viable cell ratio of 81.2% after 3 days of culturing. Moreover, the highest antibacterial activity was obtained from the film of Cu2O@PCl and showed high impact results in antibacterial behavior.
