Fig 3. Characterization of various bandages through physicochemical parameters.
(A)The porosity analysis of the TCS-Alg-ZnO, CS-Alg-ZnO and TCS-Alg bandages; (B) Lysozyme degradation profile of TCS-Alg-ZnO, CS-Alg-ZnO and TCS-Alg for 21 Days; (C) mucoadhesion study of TCS-Alg-ZnO, CS-Alg-ZnO and TCS-Alg bandages; (D), Swelling behavior of TCS-Alg-ZnO, CS-Alg-ZnO, CS-Alg and TCS-Alg bandages; (E), In vitro release of ZnO-NPs from TCS-Alg-ZnO and CS-Alg-ZnO bandages; and (F) Tensile strength of TCS-Alg-ZnO, CS-Alg-ZnO and TCS-Alg bandage. All the results are presented as mean ± SD of triplicate experiments and the significance level was considered for p < 0.05 for all statistical analysis.
