Dendritic Hydrogels with Robust Inherent Antibacterial Properties for Promoting Bacteria-Infected Wound Healing
Abstract
Bacterial infections are a common problem associated with wound treatment that imposes a significant burden on healthcare systems and patients. As a result, healthcare providers urgently need new treatment strategies to protect people. Hydrogel biomaterials with inherent antimicrobial properties offer an attractive and viable solution to this issue. Here, for the first time, we have developed a new efficient synthetic strategy to prepare cationic hydrogels (PHCI) with intrinsically efficient antimicrobial properties by chemically cross-linking trans -1,4-cyclohexanediamine with 1,3-dibromo-2-propanol using a condensation reaction without the use of toxic cross-linking agents. As expected, the prepared PHCI hydrogel possessed an inherent antibacterial ability that can adsorb and kill Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli electrostatically. Notably, in vivo experiments on normal and diabetic rat models confirmed that the PHCI hydrogel can quickly stop bleeding, efficiently kill bacteria, promote the conversion of macrophages from the proinflammatory M1 phenotype to the repaired M2 phenotype, and accelerate collagen deposition and blood vessel formation, thereby achieving rapid wound healing. Overall, this work presents an effective antibacterial dressing that might provide a facile but effective approach for clinical wound management.

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.
