A surfactant polymer dressing potentiates antimicrobial efficacy in biofilm disruption

Abstract A 100% water-soluble surfactant polymer dressing (SPD) that is bio-compatible and non-ionic has been reported to improve wound closure in preliminary clinical studies. The mechanism of action of SPD in wound healing remains unclear. Biofilm infection is a significant problem that hinders pr...

Because SPD is a surfactant based dressing, it potentially has a direct effect on Gram negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas primarily due to the lipid-based outer membrane of the bacteria.
