One of the challenges in treating burn victims is the frequency of dressing changes, which can be extremely painful. To bring relief to this and other problems, University of Waterloo researchers have ...

In a study led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Levent Beker from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Koç University, researchers ...

After an injury has occurred, a complex cascade of biological processes is initiated to support the repair and regeneration of lost or damaged tissue. Some of the different biological molecules ...

A nanocellulose wound dressing that can reveal early signs of infection without interfering with the healing process has been developed by researchers at Linköping University, Sweden. Their study, ...

New research from Thomas Jefferson University describes a novel way to sample the cells found at wounds—by using discarded wound dressings. This non-invasive approach opens a window into the cellular ...

Chronic wounds are a major medical challenge, burdening health care systems with billions of dollars in costs every year. Pioneer Fellow Börte Emiroglu is developing a new product: a selective, sponge ...

In a research led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Levent Beker from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Koç University, researchers have developed a ...

A wound dressing made from a nanocellulose mesh detects early signs of infection in skin wounds by monitoring pH. A nanocellulose-based wound dressing has been developed by researchers at Linköping ...

Wound care uses specific dressings and hygiene to prevent wound infections. The wound care team assesses the healing progress of wounds daily. Wound care: When you are admitted to the burn unit, your ...

Once upon a time, even a simple cut or scrape could be a death sentence. Before germ theory and today’s scientific understanding of medicine, infections ran rampant and took many lives. While we’re ...
