The study involved preparing extracts from Aloe vera, piper betel, and neem leaf, which were then coated onto bamboo fiber material for wound dressings. The coated fabrics showed enhanced antibacterial activity, confirmed by FTIR analysis, and the porous SEM morphology of the dressing material was found to be suitable for wound healing. In vivo studies on diabetic albino rats showed an increased wound healing rate when using the natural extracts coated dressing material. This research demonstrates the potential for clinical application of natural extracts on bamboo-based wound dressings.
In this work, the leave extracts of Aloe vera, piper betel and neem leaf were prepared and coated on bamboo fiber based material for wound dressing applications. The fabrics coated with different compositions of the natural extract were enhanced with rhEGF (REGEN-D (TM) 150). The FTIR confirms the presence of alcoholic and phenolic group which were responsible for antibacterial activity. The SEM morphology of the developed dressing material was porous nature and more suitable for the process of curing wound. In antimicrobial tests, the zone of incubation of E. coli and S. aureus ranges from 18 mm and 22. In vivo study using albino rats induced with diabetes reveals that the wound healing rate is increased in the range of 25% to 54% compared to a negative-control group. Overall, the natural extracts coated dressing material has considerable potential and well suited for clinical application that was evidenced through antimicrobial and in vivo study results. Therefore, natural extracts coated on bamboo-based dressing materials are claimed to have helpful nature for wound healing and the current study will be one of the platforms for natural extracts coated material-based medical textile applications.
