Manuka honey is a well-known natural material from New Zealand, considered to have properties beneficial for burn treatment. Gels created polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) blended with polymers are potential burn-care dressings, combining biocompatibility high fluid uptake. Controlled release of manuka such materials possible strategy improving healing. This work aimed produce (PVA), PVA–sodium carboxymethylcellulose (PVA-CMC), PVA–gelatin (PVA-G), and PVA–starch (PVA-S) cryogels infused characterize...
Propolis is a resinous product collected by honeybees with complex chemical composition. Sodium carboxymethylcellulose polymer commonly used in wound care. The goal of the present work was to produce and characterize NaCMC membranes loaded extract Brazilian brown propolis (CMC-P). Flavonoids phenolic acids were identified extracts, where main substance kaempferide. extracted active against S. aureus. low swelling capacity high gel fraction CMC-P would be consequence (responsible for...
