Animal models remain indispensable for unravelling the complex interplay of cellular, molecular and systemic responses that follow thermal injury and drive wound repair. Small rodents, especially rats ...

Hydrogels-materials like gelatin that can absorb and hold water-can aid wound healing and enable slow-release drug delivery, but they usually break down in acidic environments like the stomach.
