Bionic Cooling Skin for Infected Wound Healing (IMAGE)
Caption
- A bionic cooling skin with a hierarchical Janus nanofiber structure was fabricated by combining solvent welding technology with single-sided visible light-responsive metal–organic frameworks.
- This unique design simultaneously realized effective passive cooling (~4 °C reduction under sunlight) through high mid-infrared emissivity and on-demand antibacterial activity via photocatalytic reactive oxygen species generation.
- The bionic skin dressing closely mimics natural skin in mechanical properties and permeability while demonstrating superior healing performance for infected wound, with mechanistic insights supported by comprehensive gene expression analysis.
