Abstract

Nanotechnology holds considerable promise in the field of biomedical research, particularly in the creation of innovative materials. Its influence extends significantly to medication formulation, drug delivery systems, and the realm of nanomedicine. These materials are being increasingly investigated for a range of applications; nevertheless, it is essential to conduct thorough assessments of their safety and environmental implications. Globally, millions of people suffer from slow wound healing, which leads to heightened mortality rates and escalated healthcare expenses. The primary factors contributing to impaired wound healing include microbial infection, unstable inflammation, and persistent inflammation. Regrettably, these critical issues have not been adequately addressed by existing therapeutic methods. Nanomaterials possess the ability to influence various cellular and molecular mechanisms that enhance the wound microenvironment. Their properties, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and angiogenic effects, may promote the transition from non-healing to healing phases. This review provides a comprehensive overview of wounds, the healing process, bionanocomposites, and their significance in wound healing.
