Abstract

The paste of mixturing water-soluble chitosan (WSC) – Bacterial cellulose (BC) - Polyvinyl pyrolidone (PVP) and anti-bacterial silver nanoparticles shows good results on burn wound of experimental mice. Paste of samples containing silver nanoparticles at concentration of 10, 20, and 30 ppm can also resist two harmful strains Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, which regularly appear on burn wound. The paste can used to reduce the length of treatment and help recovering wounds without causing convex scars.
