acriflavine and Burns

Cutaneous burn wounds are a common and troublesome critical issue of public health. Over the last decade, many researchers have investigated the development of novel therapeutic modalities which are capable of fully regeneration and reinstatement of structure and function of the skin with no or limited scar formation. Novel pharmaceutical carriers are offering a potential platform to deliver the drug effectively and to overcome the limitation associated with conventional wound dressings. The aim of this study was to investigate a pharmaceutical acriflavine-loaded polycaprolactone nanoemulsion (ACR-PCL-NE) for burn wound healing. Nanoemulsion was prepared by using the double emulsion solvent evaporation technique and it was subjected to thermodynamic stability testing, droplet size, polydispersity, zeta potential, pH, and surface morphology analysis.
