Alginate is a biocompatible and biodegradable substance found in seaweed. Now, researchers from Tokyo University of Science have used alginate from seaweed washed ashore, CaCO3, and carbonated water to develop a hydrogel which exhibits lower skin adhesion and swelling. These properties, though exactly opposite of conventional wound dressings, can help prevent the expansion of the wound site during recovery and the obtained hydrogel has high wound healing efficacy.
