STARCH DERIVATIVES AND OTHER DERIVATIVES, PRODUCTION PROCESSES THEREFOR, AND WOUND HEALING APPLICATIONS THEREFOR

摘要

Novel phosphate starch derivatives are useful in wound healing. Novel phosphorylated cottons are useful in wound healing. Silver-derivatized wound care products are provided which survive washing and remain part of the wound care product. Silver-derivatized wound care products are provided that have favorable elastase-sequestering activity while advantageously appearing white-colored, without needing to darken to grey or black as usually would occur when working with silver. Also, starch products with outstanding water uptake are provided.
