Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant challenge in wound management, particularly in ischemic and chronic wounds, which are prone to infection and where traditional treatments often fall short. In response to this need, the antibacterial activity of polycaprolactone (PCL) films, composited with sodium perborate and sodium percarbonate to provide controlled release of oxygen and reactive oxygen species, is compared in vitro and in vivo. Sustained antimicrobial action against both Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria is measured in vitro that allowed lower quantities to be used compared with the borate and carbonate counterparts sodium borate and carbonate. This effect is also observed in vivo, such that perborate formulations are effective at wound treatment using one‐tenth the borate concentration required in sodium borate formulations. Overall, sodium perborate‐loaded films significantly accelerate wound closure, reduce bacterial load, and enhance early‐phase wound healing, outperforming borate equivalent counterparts at equivalent loading levels. In addition to effectively inhibiting bacterial growth, these composites prevent biofilm formation in vitro. These findings suggest that perborate‐loaded polymeric films could be a powerful tool in advanced wound care, offering both potent antimicrobial effects and promotion of wound healing in complex clinical settings.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
