Infection poses a significant barrier to effective wound repair, leading to increased inflammatory responses that ultimately result in incomplete and prolonged wound healing. To address this challenge, numerous antibacterial ingredients have been incorporated into dressings to inhibit wound infection. Our previous work demonstrated that lysozyme/silver nanoparticles (LYZ/AgNPs) complexes, prepared using an eco-friendly one-step aqueous method, exhibited excellent antibacterial efficacy with favorable biosafety. To further explore its potential application in advancing wound healing, calcium alginate (CA) with good porosity, water absorption, and water retention capacities was formulated with LYZ/AgNPs to prepare composite sponge (CA/LYZ/AgNPs). As expected, in vivo experiments involving full-thickness skin wound and scald wound healing experiments demonstrated that CA-LYZ-AgNPs composite sponges with excellent biocompatibility exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria and fungi, and outperformed the wound healing process efficacy of other commercially available AgNPs-loaded wound dressings. In summary, this work introduces a CA/LYZ/AgNPs sponge featuring exceptional antibacterial efficacy and biocompatibility, thus holding promising potential in wound care applications.
