Generation of cost-effective MXene@polydopamine-decorated chitosan nanofibrous wound dressing for promoting wound healing

Herein, we designed and fabricated a [email protected] ([email protected])-decorated chitosan non-woven fabric (M-CNF) hemostatic dressing with super hydrophilic properties for wound repair and regeneration. The M-CNF exhibit excellently wettability characteristics which can rapidly absorb water from blood. Moreover, M-CNF with 15 mg/mL [email protected] (M-CNF-15) show better antibacterial performance, excellent blood-clotting performance, better blood cell and platelet adhesion ability than CNF, displaying both active and passive hemostatic mechanisms to accelerate blood clotting in mouse-liver injury model. In addition, the M-CNF-15 also shows better wound healed performance than Tegaderm™ film in a full-thickness skin defect model, and further demonstrating that the [email protected] can promote fibrinogen reformation the at the initial phases of the wound healing process. Therefore, this strategy for designing and manufacturing of multi-functional M-CNF wound dressing will have great potential for active local hemostasis and wound repair and regeneration.
