TARO INDUSTRY S.A.; PRO COMOD SHOES SRL4th International Conference on Advanced Materials and Systems, ICAMS 2012 -- 27 September 2012 through 29 September 2012 -- Bucharest -- 100613The purpose of the present work was to develop and characterize some spongious matrices based on collagen and essential oils, uncross-linked and cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, obtained by lyophilization. The active components from the obtained matrices were thymbra, lavender and oregano essential oils. The components of studied essential oils were identified by GC-MS. The prepared sponges were analyzed by swelling ability, enzymatic degradation and thermal analyses. The results of this work indicated that the properties of collagen-essential oils depend on the composition of essential oils, the most stable matrix being the collagen-lavender oil one. This property allows its uses as long-term wound dressing in infected skin damages.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCollagenEssential oilsSpongesConference Object2792842-s2.0-84888233838N/A
