Recently researchers at the National University of Singapore, have been used chitosan methacrylate and PCL as base hydrogel and backing layer respectively to fabricate customizable wound dressings via 3D printing. Synthesized chitosan methacrylate is evaluated to be printable, biodegradable, and biocompatible during wound healing. Various drugs relevant to the treatment of burns are then loaded and different multimaterial wound dressing designs containing different dosages are fabricated via 3D printing.
