RESUMEN
Using three-dimensional printing to produce antibacterial wound dressing is a new topic that will change the production style of wound dressing industry. Combining with post-3D-printed process, a desktop fused deposition molding equipment can be used to produce wound dressing containing polyvinyl alcohol, alginate and chitosan. The wound dressing produced by FDM has good aspects of absorbency, moisture vapour transmission rate and mechanical property. After loaded with antibacterial agent iodine and silver nano particle, the antibacterial activity rate increases to 99% and it is suitable to use as antibacterial wound dressing. This method affects the production of wound dressing to a more cost-effective way, and provides a possible individualized treatment for patient in the future.
