摘要

The increasing demand for biocompatible and effective wound-healing solutions has driven research into natural, antimicrobial-based dressings. Thus, growing concern about antibiotic resistance has led to exploring alternative infection treatments. By adding honey (HY) and Piper longum aqueous extract (PLAE) to chitosan (CHI)-based films, this study seeks to improve wound healing. The solvent casting method was used to create these films, which were then thoroughly examined utilizing SEM, FTIR, XRD, water transmission investigations, and dynamic mechanical examination. Additionally, histological examinations and rabbit wound-healing studies were used to evaluate their biodegradation, antibacterial activity, hemolytic qualities, and in vivo efficacy. The findings showed strong potential for wound healing, indicating that these films might be used as cutting-edge material for wound dressings. These films have a lot of potential for commercialization as bioactive wound dressings because of their natural composition and antibacterial effectiveness. Their use in the medical and pharmaceutical sectors may provide a viable and efficient substitute for traditional wound treatment methods.
