Researchers have discovered an innovative way to create longer-lasting antimicrobial wound protection by saturating bioactive glass with silver - the combination of which sustains the metal’s antimicrobial properties and reduces biofilm formation. It is hoped that this new combination will enhance the management of chronic wounds, such as pressure sores, venous leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers – all of which exact a significant financial burden on health services and are an area of unmet clinical need.
