Antibacterial activity and wound healing properties of chitosan ana nanoparticle chitosan in rat

Abstract

This study investigates the antibacterial and wound healing properties of chitosan and chitosan nanoparticles in a rat model. Twenty adult male rats are divided into two groups: one group received chitosan treatment, and the other received chitosan nanoparticle treatment. Each rat had two skin slits, which are dried over seven days. Wound healing is estimated through histopathological and microbiological duties. The findings tell that chitosan nanoparticles significantly develop wound healing and exhibit bigger antibacterial activity compared to traditional chitosan, representing their potential for innovative wound care applications.
