Development of an antimicrobial wound dressing made of biocompatible polymers and metal nanoparticles for superficial treatment of diabetic foot ulcer

This project proposes the development of biodegradable and biocompatible materials with antimicrobial capacity to prevent diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) by inhibiting methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which may eventually reduce healing time and incidence of infections. This pathogen...
