Abstract :

In recent years, the use of wound dressings has increased with the aim of facilitating faster and controlled wound healing while adhering to the characteristics of an ideal dressing. Nanofiber wound dressings, which hold great promise, continue to be in use. This project focused on optimizing hyaluronic acid -derived from chicken combs- and gelatin nanofiber wound dressings using the solution blowing method. To accommodate the use of large amounts of water as a solvent, the compressed air utilized in the solution blowing process was heated.
