Overview

Randomized trial reports effective antibacterial activity of PEGDA/CMC hydrogel patches with bioactive agents, indicating promising applications in healthcare.

Key Points

  • The aim is to design and optimize PEGDA/CMC hydrogels for enhanced antibacterial properties using black cumin seed oil as a bioactive agent.
  • Fabrication of hydrogel micropatterned patches using LCD 3D printing.
  • Application of Taguchi Design of Experiments to optimize printing parameters and geometries.
  • Evaluation of mechanical performance, swelling behavior, release kinetics, and antibacterial activity.
  • Conical micropatterns demonstrated the highest mechanical strength.
  • Controlled release of B-EO showed significant inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus.
  • Cytocompatibility assays confirm no cytotoxic effects on L929 fibroblasts.
