Tissue regeneration using bioactive biomaterials has made great progress in the field of wound healing. Biopolymers play a cardinal role in regenerative medicine by providing safe, biocompatible and bioresorbable support. The electrospinning fabrication technique has been used in creating suitable wound care materials. PHBV and PLLA are FDA approved polymers having important applications in biomedical field. In this study, to increase the wound healing potential, PHBV was functionalized with COOH group, and electrospun nano-fibrous mat was produced using PHBV COOH and PLLA blended solution. Antibiofilm peptide (IDR-1018) with immunomodulatory activity was incorporated into the blended solution to improve infected wound treatment by actively fighting against bacterial infections. Furthermore, in-vitro experiments including cell cytotoxicity assay and scratch wound healing assay were done to evaluate the potential of the synthesized bioactive nanofibrous mat as a potential wound management aid.
