Dual-Responsive Antibacterial Hydrogel Patch for Chronic-Infected Wound Healing

Bacterial infections in chronic wounds, such as bedsores and diabetic ulcers, present significant healthcare challenges. Excessive antibiotic use leads to drug resistance and lacks precision for targeted wound treatment. Our study introduces an innovative solution: a near-infrared (NIR) and pH dual-responsive hydrogel patch incorporating regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) and molybdenum dioxide (MoO
