Vitamin C and E-loaded bilayer wound dressings were prepared using bacterial cellulose and pullulan. The dressings exhibited good wetting properties and mechanical strength, and showed a synergistic effect on wound healing due to the co-release of vitamin C and E.
Vitamin C&E (VtC&VtE)-loaded bilayer wound dressings were prepared using bacterial cellulose (BC) synthesized by Acetobacter species and pullulan (PUL). VtC-containing PUL hydrogels (100 mu g/mL) were immobilized onto BC by crosslinking. BC/PUL-VtC was loaded with VtE (100 mu M in ethanol) by immersion for 2 h. No delamination between the layers was observed via SEM. Despite the porous inner PUL side, the outer BC side exhibited nanofibmus morphology serving as barriers to prevent microorganism invasion. Equilibrium water content of BC/PUL was above 85 % due to the hydrogel characteristics of PUL side, suitable to absorb exudate in wound bed. PUL layer lost >90 % of its weight in simulated wound fluid and > 99 % in lysozyme solution within 14 days, mediating co-release of VtC&VtE. Thin BC side possessed adequate strength ( similar to 22 MPa) and strain (>30 %) to endure against tensile stress generated by bending on wound surface without rupture, whereas thick PUL side was flexible (>70 % strain) to fit into wound bed under compressive stress without causing harm. In vitro studies using L929 fibroblasts elucidated PUL side was anti-adhesive and removable. Synergistic effect of VtC&VtE on antioxidant activity, wound closure, and collagen synthesis was observed. Thus, BC/PUL-VtC/VtE hold promise as cheap and eco-friendly temporary wound dressing.
