Foam-forming wound dressing

摘要

This invention relates generally to a foamed-wound dressing containing albumin and at least one other protein. The foam dressing is prepared initially as a liquid composition, but forms a foam when a shear force is applied to the liquid. The wound dressing can be prepared as a foam in situ on the surface of the wound or can be pre-formed as a foam and then later applied to a wound. A biocompatible foam wound dressing for human can be prepared using human proteins.
