Growth Factor Loaded Nanofibers for Wound Healing
The nanofibers are loaded with a pair of growth factors that promote efficient wound healing through sustained activation of select pathways Background An average of 2% of the total United States population have chronic wounds, but current treatments are inadequate. We’re developing new ways to heal chronic wounds by using electrospun nanofibers...
