Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To date no local infection assessment in wound healing was available except by doctor's experience. The goal of this researcher is to establish a new real-time evaluation method for wounds. I wanted to optimize the use of wound antibiotic therapy both domestically and worldwide. In order to investigate the relationship between pH value change and bacterial growth, an in vitro test was conducted as a locally infected wound equivalent model. The number of bacteria and the pH value increased with the culture period. There was a positive correlation between pH value and bacterial count. From these results it was concluded that the pH value of the wound correlates with the number of viable bacteria and the bacterial growth rate in the wound. It was confirmed that bacteria were involved in the fluctuation of the pH value of the wound.
