Swelling Behaviour: Swelling Behavior of Hydrogel of Na. Cl, Mg. Cl 2 and Glucose. Na. Cl Swelling(%) Every year, hundred thousand patients suffer from burns due to domestic and industrial accidents, which along with enormous cost of treatment, cause mortality and considerable morbidity. Concerns about the miserable and deplorable condition of the burnt patients in underdeveloped and developing country, have prompted our Research Group to do this research. Our prime motivation behind this research is to use biopolymers formulation of bioactive products (e. g. hydrogel and composite sponge) that will be used to promote and initiate the normal dermal and epidermal wound healing process by providing an optimum microenvironment for healing. Introduction and gauzes all with varying degrees of absorbency were used for the management of wounds. Their primary function was to keep the wound dry by allowing evaporation of wound exudates and preventing entry of harmful bacteria into the wound. But now it has been shown that having a warm moist wound environment accomplishes more rapid and successful wound healing. Effective wound dressing requires not only protecting the wound from its surroundings but also promoting healing by providing an optimum microenvironment for healing, removing any excess wound exudate, and allowing continuous tissue reconstruction. Different types of formulations have been developed such as passive products, interactive and bioactive products. We used chitosan and ceramide for preparation of hydrogel and composite sponge for medical application. CG CGW C 3 G Glucose C 3 Gw CG 3 Sample Name CG 3 W 2.

Weight loss : • • Chitosan was dissolved in 10% aqueous acetic acid to form a 1% chitosan solution (w/v). Gelatin (10%) solution was prepared by dissolving gelatin powder in deionized water. The composite sponges were prepared by dissolving chitosan solution into the gelatin solution with different portions (Chitosan: Gelatin=3 : 1, 1 : 1, and 1 : 3) named as C 3 G, CG and CG 3, respectively. The resulting solution was vigorously mixed and frozen at − 51˚C for 12 h followed by freeze-drying to obtain composite sponge. For ceramide encapsulated in the composite sponge, different contents of ceramide ranging from 0 to 0. 5 g was added to the opaqueous solution. Preparation of Hydrogel • Chitosan was dissolved in 10% aqueous acetic acid to form a 1% chitosan solution (w/v). • Gelatin (10%) solution was prepared by dissolving gelatin powder in deionized water. • The chitosan solution was dissolved into the gelatin solution with different portions (Chitosan : Gelatin=3 : 1, 1 : 1, and 1 : 3) named as C 3 G, CG and CG 3, respectively. • PVA was added in deionized water (10% w/v). • For ceramide encapsulated in the Hydrogel, different contents of ceramide ranging from 0 to 1 g were added in the PVA solution. • The chemical crosslinking agent solution ( made by using GA, HCl, ethanol) was prepared and added to mixture with constant stirring. • Then glycerin was added with constant stirring and the resulting solution mixture left for overnight drying at room temperature.

We have also incorporated ceramide, which has Conclusions capability of holding moisture and acts as a barrier against bacteria and environmental pollutants. By adding ceramide the moisture retention capability, swelling behavior, water vapor transmission rate, antibacterial activity has improved. We have applied our prepared hydrogel and composite sponge on burnt mice and got good healing effect. References [1] Nguyen, V. C. , Nguyen, V. B. , & Hsieh, M. -F. (2013).
