Background
Hydrogels are a class of soft material materials consisting of a 3D polymer network and a large amount of water, with many structural similarities to the soft tissues of living organisms. The hydrogel is a novel ideal medical dressing, can lock moisture when being externally applied, maintains the moist environment of a wound surface, is beneficial to healing of the wound, is not easy to scab the wound, reduces scars and keeps the beauty of the skin; when used as the filler for the internal invasive surgery, the adhesive is well attached to the wound surface. Therefore, the hydrogel can be widely used in the biomedical engineering field, such as internal wound operation fillers, wound dressings, drug delivery and the like.
The main modes of hydrogel formation at present are chemical crosslinking and physical crosslinking, and the hydrogels formed by the two modes need to introduce bridging agents such as proteins, metal ions, small molecule surfactants and the like into a system so as to induce the formation of the hydrogel through the bridging action. However, most of the hydrogel formed by the two modes has low purity, cannot be completely absorbed by a human body, and influences the normal metabolism of the human body. And the traditional dressing is easy to cause secondary damage when being replaced, thereby bringing pain to patients. At present, the antibacterial effect of the hydrogel dressing is generally from the added antibacterial drugs or the introduction of metal ions for antibiosis, hydrogel often only has the effect of providing a humid environment, the function and the effect are single, the use requirement of clinical medicine can not be met for a long time, the raw material source of the biological dressing is limited, the preparation process is complex, and the biological dressing is not suitable for large-scale popularization. In addition, most of the current hydrogel dressings are inevitably prepared by using some toxic and harmful chemicals, toxic and harmful substances are generated in the production and preparation processes, and the hydrogel dressings pollute the environment and spread viruses if not recovered in time after being used.
The glycyrrhetinic acid is a typical medicine-food homologous traditional Chinese medicine, the main component of the glycyrrhetinic acid has extremely high pharmacological application value, and has the effects of diuresis resistance, inflammation resistance, cough relief, virus resistance and the like on healthy people and various animals, but the glycyrrhetinic acid has limited application range due to weak antibacterial activity, poor hydrophilicity, low biological activity and the like, and the product developed by the glycyrrhetinic acid has single functionality.
