Description
Summary:Cutaneous wounds are one of the pressing concerns for healthcare systems globally. With large amounts of water, conventional hydrogels encounter obstacles in effectively delivering small molecules and peptides for wound healing. The surplus water content challenges the stability and sustained release of small molecules and peptides, diminishing their therapeutic efficacy. Our pioneering smart powder bandage, fabricated through freeze-drying, ensures a water content of
