Compression Bandage and Wound Care Biomaterial With Nanotechnology
(CRC Press, 2024) Vaibhav Verma; Vivek Dave; Prashansa Sharma; Devsuni Singh
Nanotechnology-based bandages and wound care biomaterials have enormous potential for treating and preventing wound infections due to their numerous advantages over traditional treatment approaches. As wound healing remains a concern for the medical community, wound treatment becomes a crucial aspect of healthcare systems. One field that may offer novel approaches to regenerative medicine is nanotechnology and biomaterial technology. It is critical to understand the role of nanotechnology and biomaterial technology, which, when used to incorporate drugs into nano-and biomaterials, respectively, and then loaded in nanofibre-based bandages, compression bandages, stockings, or antimicrobial dressings, will provide unique wound management properties. Conventional burn treatments are available, but they are ineffective when compared to nano-and biomaterial-based compression bandages and stockings utilized in wound dressings. Furthermore, because of their underlying healing properties and wide range of antibacterial activity, novel antimicrobial agents, such as silver nanotechnology have gained a notable amount of interest in recent years. So, in this chapter, we went over the wound, its classification, and the stages of wound healing, as well as various medical textiles such as compression bandages and stockings-their classification, benefits, and applications. We also discuss briefly the nanomaterials and biomaterials employed in making bandages and dressings. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Prashansa Sharma, Devsuni Singh, Suman Pant and Vivek Dave; individual chapters, the contributors.
Description of the Processing Techniques Used in Biotextiles for Medical Application
(CRC Press, 2024) Prashansa Sharma; Devsuni Singh; Suman Pant; Vivek Dave
Biotextiles as structures composed of textile fibres have recently attracted a lot of interest for usage in a range of medical applications due to their affordability and distinctive physical and chemical characteristics. This chapter summarizes the biopolymers created from natural or synthetic materials that are utilized in the mitigation, medication, or diagnosis of disease or injury and various fibre production techniques to generate polymer monomers into textile filament including melt-, wet-, dry-, electrospinning, and multi/bicomponent spinning. Moreover, various fabrication techniques used to convert fibre into textile structures, in order to get achieve the required form, shape, and mechanical qualities for a medical device such as knitted, woven, nonwoven, braided, and nonwoven ePTFE techniques are explained. Finally, several drug-releasing techniques of bioactive compounds are used to create drug-loaded fibrous structures. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Prashansa Sharma, Devsuni Singh, Suman Pant and Vivek Dave; individual chapters, the contributors.
Ecofriendly fabrication of cobalt nanoparticles using Azadirachta indica (neem) for effective inhibition of Candida-like fungal infection in medicated nano-coated textile
(Springer, 2024) Devsuni Singh; Prashansa Sharma; Suman Pant; Vivek Dave; Rekha Sharma; Rakesh Yadav; Anand Prakash; Arindam Kuila
This study involves the formulation of cobalt nanoparticles by means of ethanolic Azadirachta indica (neem) extract (CoNP@N). Later, the formulated buildup was incorporated into cotton fabric in order to mitigate antifungal infection. Optimization of the formulation was carried out by considering the effect of plant concentration, temperature, and revolutions per minute (rpm) used, through design of the experiment (DOE), response surface methodology (RSM), and ANOVA of the synthetic procedure. Hence, graph was potted with the aid of effecting parameters and the related factors (size of particle and zeta potential). Further characterization of nanoparticles was performed through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Attenuated total reflection–Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) was considered for the detection of functional groups. The structural property of CoNP@N was calculated with the aid of powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The surface property was measured with the use of a surface area analyzer (SAA). The values of Inhibition concentration (IC50) and zone of inhibition (ZOI), were calculated, so as to determine the antifungal property against both the strains (Candida albicans, MTCC 227and Aspergillus niger, MTCC 8652). The further nano-coated cloth was subjected to a durability test, and hence the cloth was washed (through the purpose of time 0; 10; 25; and 50 washing cycles), and then its anti-fungal operation to a couple of strains was retained. Primarily, 51 μg/ml of cobalt nanoparticles incorporated on the cloth was retained but after 50 washing cycles in 500 ml of purified water, the cloth showed more efficiency contrary to C. albicans than towards A. niger. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2023.
