Nanocomposite sponges of sodium alginate/graphene oxide/polyvinyl alcohol as potential wound dressing: In vitro and in vivo evaluation
Abstract
Abstract Wound dressings with high flexibility, mechanical strength, and porosity have received increasing attention. Herein, nanocomposite sponges of sodium alginate/graphene oxide (GO)/polyvinyl alcohol were prepared by a freeze-thawing cyclic process and freeze-dried molding. The properties of the sponges were investigated including morphology, mechanical properties, swelling, water vapor permeability, in vitro norfloxacin (NFX) release, antibacterial property, and biocompatibility as well as in vivo wound healing in a mouse model. A GO concentration of 1 wt% resulted in the sponges with a homogeneously porous and interconnected network structure, which exhibited suitable water absorption, breathability, and mechanical properties. Hemolysis tests indicated that the prepared sponges were non-hemolytic material. The CCK-8 assay demonstrated that the presence of an appropriate amount of GO could promote the cell proliferation. The sponges displayed excellent bioavailability of NFX, with a sustained release behavior and a strong inhibitory effect against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The in vivo evaluations demonstrated that the sponges enhanced wound healing. Therefore, these novel nanocomposite sponges are promising candidates for wound healing applications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
