Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to develop a novel gel formulation for treatment to pressure ulcer, it was performed to screen about additive agent which could control gelation and gelation time.Furthermore, the physical properties of the gel and its effect on wound were evaluated. As a result, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) could control the physical properties such as gelation speed at a much lower amount. In addition, the results of the severe wound model shows that the EGCG gel was found to be useful to apply until the stage of necrotic tissue removal.
