Wound dressing material containing silk fibroin and sericin as main component and method for preparing same

摘要

There is provided a novel wound dressing material which has biocompatibility and infection controllability as essential properties required for such a material, especially excellent flexibility and water absorption properties, thereby accelerating smooth regeneration of a skin defect without stripping off the regenerating skin while removing the material from the skin. A healing agent is added to the wound dressing material which comprises an amorphous film of a crystallinity below 10% and contains fibroin and sericin as a main component.
