Abstract:

The silk fibroin degumming from silk, which have the advantages of good biocompatibility, high biodegradable, weak inflammation after implanted into body, is a natural polymer fiber protein. Thus, wound dressing based on SF would have broad application prospects. However, wound dressings made of native silk fibroin are insufficient to meet the several functional requirements of ideal wound dressing, limiting its clinical application. Therefore, many research focus on improving its function nowdays. This paper reviews the research progress of different functional dressing types based on silk fibroin at home and abroad in recent years and the application prospects of wound dressing based on fibroin have also been expected, in order to provide beneficial reference for the research on the clinical application of wound dressings.
