5 CONCLUSIONS
In conclusion, the chitosan-PEG nanocomposite hydrogels loaded with
phomopsidione were successfully synthesized and characterized. The
characterization results have revealed that the nanocomposite hydrogels
have great promise to act as antimicrobial dressings for chronic wounds.
The testing of the nanocomposite hydrogel should be further extended toin vivo study to evaluate the efficacy with the animal models
simulating the chronic pressure ulcers.
