Development of stabilized dual growth factor-loaded hyaluronate collagen dressing matrix

Patients with diabetes experience impaired growth factor production such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and they are reportedly involved in wound healing processes. Here, we report dual growth factor-loaded hyaluronate collagen dressing (Dual-HCD) matrix, using different ratios of the concentration of stabilized growth factors—stabilized-EGF (S-EGF) and stabilized-bFGF (S-bFGF). At first, the optimal...
