Manufacturing Process and Characterization of Tencel/Gelatin Composite Dressing

Abstract

This study used nonwoven fabrics as the matrix of a composite dressing and coating with different gelatin-anthocyanin ratios (10/0 wt%, 10/5 wt%, and 10/10 wt%). The anthocyanin reduced gelatin degradation rate, epithelialization rates increased, and deposition of collagen in the wound dermis was well organized by the composite wound dressing. This composite containing gelatin and anthocyanin can be employed as a wound dressing.
