单宁酸-氯化铁-聚ACG复合水凝胶微针贴片的制备与性能表征

Preparation and characterization of tannic acid-ferric chloride-polyACG composite hydrogel microneedle patch

  • 摘要: 皮肤是人体最大的器官,皮肤损伤后若不能及时愈合会形成慢性伤口,其中细菌感染是慢性难愈合创面面临的一大难题。水凝胶是一种具有三维网络结构的高分子材料,能够吸收伤口渗出液,保持伤口湿润,有助于加速愈合过程。但实际临床使用中,水凝胶敷料的抗菌性仍有待提升。本文以N-丙烯酰基-2-甘氨酸(ACG)为单体,通过引入单宁酸(TA)、FeCl3和羟基磷灰石(HAp),制备具有光热杀菌性能的水凝胶;进一步利用PDMS微针模具,构建具有微针结构的水凝胶,使其能够穿透皮肤角质层达到深层次的杀菌效果,并且不会产生强烈的疼痛感,促进创面愈合。本文研究了TA含量对复合水凝胶的韧性和黏附性能的影响,结果表明,当TA∶ACG为1∶20时,制备出的复合水凝胶具有高力学强度(790 kPa)、高拉伸性(1043%)和良好的黏附性(25.04 kPa)。水凝胶中FeCl3的含量会影响光热转换温度,当FeCl3∶TA为1∶25时,水凝胶在808 nm激光照射下2 min可以达到51℃。该研究利用TA与FeCl3的光热效应,制备临床伤口管理所需要的水凝胶敷料,并做成微针形状,展示出其在促愈合、载药输送、临床检测等领域的应用潜力。

     

    Abstract: Skin is the largest organ of body, and chronic wounds can inevitably form when the skin injuries do not be healed promptly, and bacterial infection is a major challenge for healing chronic wounds. Hydrogel, a three-dimensional network structure, can help accelerate wound healing by absorbing exudate and maintaining moisture of wounds. However, the antibacterial property of hydrogel dressings still need be highly improved. In this study, a photothermal antibacterial hydrogel was prepared by using N-acryloyl-2-glycine (ACG), tannic acid (TA), FeCl3, and hydroxyapatite (HAp). And subsequently exploiting a PDMS micro-needle mold to construct hydrogel microneedle patch which could penetrate the epidermis for deep-level antibacterial effects without causing strong pain. When TA∶ACG was fixed at 1∶20, the synthetic hydrogel exhibited high mechanical strength (790 kPa), long tensile strain (1043%), and good adhesion (25.04 kPa). Additionally, when FeCl3∶TA was 1∶25, the hydrogel could reach 51°C under 808-nm laser irradiation for 2 minutes. As the proof of concept, this study demonstrates the hydrogel microneedle patch with photothermal effects can be utilized in clinical wound management, showing great potential for promoting wound healing, drug delivery, and clinical detection.
