The scaffolds were prepared by lyophilization technique. In specific BG without sodium (Na), composited with chitosan for better biological activities. The equipped scaffolds were studied for their physiochemical, biological, in vitro and in vivo perfor-mances. The chitosan and chitosan-BG (Na free) scaffolds show reliable biocompatibility, cytocompatibility, anti-oxidant, and tissue regeneration. The biocompatibility, toxicity assessments, and diabetic skin wound healing experiments were examined through in vivo studies using Sprague Dawley rats. The extracted tissue samples were analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin-(H and E) and Masson's trichrome staining. Further, tissue excised after scaffold implantation declared non-toxic, non-allergic, and anti-inflammatory nature of chitosan scaffolds. Moreover, the total ribonucleic acid (RNA) expression levels were measured using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for the scaffolds against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and collagen type one (Col-1) primers. Admirably, the scaffolds achieved the best level of skin wound healing via tissue regeneration by increasing epithetical cell formation and collagen deposition. Thus, the biocompatibility, non-toxicity, anti-inflammatory, and wound healing efficiency proved that the chitosan-BG (Na free) scaffold can be readily substantial for wound healing. 收起
