Abstract

Recovery of wound is an intricate process.  The stages of wound healing consist of four stages. Hemostasis, Inflammation, Proliferation, and Remodeling phases are overlapping with each other. Growth factor is an essential key role in wound healing and it is a specific endogenous polypeptide secreted by six cells such as platelets, macrophages, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, mast cells and neutrophils. Over the past few decades, researchers have used hydrogels to generate wound dressing material.
