Theoretical and experimental prerequisites of fibrous activated carbon AUVM "Dnepr"MN applications in healing of wounds and burns.
Physico-chemical and biological properties of fibrous activated carbons AUVM "Dnepr" MN are examined. These properties turn them into a promising application material for wounds and burns. The experiments in rabbits with a model musculocutaneous hip wound have shown that an early AUVM application prevents the development of traumatic edema, contributes to rapid and uncomplicated wound healing, while in the control group the complications occur in 80% of the animals with a 30% lethality. The therapeutic AUVM effect is associated with the ability of these materials to rapidly sorb and eliminate inflammation-inducing mediators as well as the protective properties of the AUVM against secondary wound infections.
