Development of A Three-dimensional Sponge Dressing Containing Fucoidan for Skin Damage Repair

Fucoidan has various biological activities, such as antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anticoagulant, antitumor and immunomodulatory activities. In view of the role of fucoidan in regulating transforming growth factor $\beta 1$ related to wound repair, and helping the formation of new blood vessels and fibrous collagen matrix, it has the potential to help skin repair. Therefore, this study applied fucoidan to the development of a three-dimensional sponge dressing for skin damage repair. At present, the manufacturing process and formulation of the three-dimensional sponge dressing containing fucoidan have been developed, and its physical properties and biocompatibility have been evaluated. It is expected to contribute to the development of skin damage treatment in the future.
