TLDR Probiotic nanoscaffolds significantly improved burn healing and infection control in mice.
The study focused on the development of electrospun probiotic functionalized nanocomposite scaffolds aimed at controlling infections and promoting dermal burn healing, tested in a mice model. The research demonstrated that these scaffolds could effectively reduce bacterial infections and enhance the healing process of dermal burns. The incorporation of probiotics into the nanocomposite scaffolds played a crucial role in improving the antimicrobial properties and biocompatibility of the material, leading to better healing outcomes in the treated mice. This innovative approach suggested a promising strategy for managing burn wounds and preventing infections.
