Abstract
⺠Bacterial cellulose (BC) was produced in large scale from culture of Acetobacter xylinum. ⺠The addition of chitosan (Ch) into BC (BC-Ch) increased the antibacterial activities. ⺠BC and BC-Ch membranes helped maintain a moist wound healing environment. ⺠Wounds treated with BC-Ch epithelialized faster than those treated with Tegaderm.
