Research Abstract |
In the present study, we examined the activity of the silver-containing dressing on wound infection was studied in vivo model. Full- thickness wounds were created on the backs of SD rats. P. aeruginosa strain PAO1 was inoculated at the wound surface. Wounds were harvested at 3 days postwounding, processed for histology and bacterial counts in the wound tissue. The silver-containing dressing did not demonstrate an antibacterial effect in the minimal volume of wound fluid. In conclusion, it is necessary for appropriate measures of the silver-containing dressing to need an accurate acessment of wound environment.
