Iran Develops Antibacterial Wound Dressing Curbing Red Blood Cell Disruption

Iran Develops Antibacterial Wound Dressing Curbing Red Blood Cell Disruption

Nowadays, considerable effort is made to overcome bacterial diseases and combat bacterial resistance. In this context, development of safe and efficient antimicrobial wound dressings which can selectively fight against the bacteria and decrease disruption of normal cells such as red blood cells in wound bed is highly required.

To that end, a group of researchers at Iran’s Royan Institute and the University of Tehran carried out a study in which a series of ammonium salts of alginate were prepared and the role of different counter-cations including sodium, triethylammonium, tributylammonium and dihexylammonium were examined with respect to antimicrobial efficacy and selectivity as well as fibroblasts viability.

The results of the study, published in ‘Materials Science and Engineering: C’, reveal that many different parameters such as hydrophilicity, linearity and branching structure, molecular weight and charge density can influence the selectivity of ammonium counter-cations.

In vitro biological studies also indicated that tributylammonium alginate (TBA-Alg) possesses optimum anti-hemolytic and antibacterial properties compared with other counter-cations.

Furthermore, the fibrous mat of TBA-Alg demonstrated higher swelling ratio and better anti-hemolytic and cytotoxic activities against fibroblasts compared to a commercial silver-impregnated calcium alginate wound dressing.

Moreover, histopathological analysis of tributylammonium alginate fibrous mat revealed that this dressing accelerates reepithelialization of infected full-thickness skin wounds as well as the commercial silver-impregnated calcium alginate wound dressing.

Mohammad Amiri Roodan is a school teacher in Hormozgan province. He set off on his journey around the world on camel in June, 2019. The trip was scheduled to take two and a half years. Now, he has stopped his journey due to the epidemic.

The trip was geared to introducing the tourist attractions of Iran, especially those of Hormozgan province, including the Iranian Bactrian camel and a wonderful local lagoon. The journey began in a ceremony attended by officials and a group of local people.

“First, I intended to go to Europe via Russia before visiting other continents. However, the type of the trip was little known to people, which further complicated the process of administrative work and receiving permits and delayed my work,” says the tourist.

“Finally I decided to swap the camel with a tame one bred by nomads,” he says.

According to the tourist, it took him one and half months to go through all paperwork and administrative procedure to swap the camel.

He says finally he set off on his journey and arrived in the Azerbaijan Republic after almost a month.

“Bu the necessary arrangements had not been made with that country and I was not allowed to enter the country with a camel,” he notes.

“Moreover, the coronavirus outbreak in China further intensified these restrictions,” he says.

“So, I had to return to Iran. I began my journey again after a short rest,” says the tourist.

He says he has now stopped his trip due to the coronavirus epidemic, and when he will restart his journey depends on the extent to which the coronavirus outbreak is controlled.

Coronavirus Test Kits Made in Iran to Come on Market Next Month

20-Minute COVID-19 Test

An early diagnosis of COVID-19 is the primary and most important process in the treatment of the respiratory disease whose global cases have surpassed 100,000 in 100 countries.

While the test kits have turned into a vital tool in screening the coronavirus patients and diagnosing the disease, the Iranian experts have buckled down to work to manufacture the test kits inside the country.

To diagnose COVID-19, the Iranian medical staffs are currently using the test kits that have been purchased or obtained from the World Health Organization, China and the UNICEF.

Amid the growing demand for the coronavirus test kits, the Biotechnology Development Headquarters of Iran’s Vice Presidency for Science and Technology called on the domestic knowledge-based companies to make the kits.

Following the call, a large number of companies expressed readiness to manufacture the kits.

A total of 50 enterprises volunteered to carry out the task, five of whom were chosen after being vetted by the officials, and contracts were signed to do the job.

Secretary of Biotechnology Development Headquarters of the Vice Presidency for Science and Technology, Mostafa Qanei, says the homegrown test kits will be available on the open market by the Iranian month of Farvardin (March 20 – April 19).

He also noted that the imported test kits currently at Iran’s disposal are adequate for the next two months, but there will be a shortage of such diagnostic tools afterwards. “That’s why we are fulfilling this need with the help of the domestic capabilities.”

Iran’s Health Ministry announced on Monday that the number of people who have died from the coronavirus in the country has risen to 237 and the total number of confirmed cases to 7,161. At least 2,394 people have recovered from the disease in Iran so far.

The novel coronavirus has infected more than 108,000 people around the world and killed more than 3,800.

Iran Develops Homegrown Lifesaving Wrist Strap

Iran Develops Homegrown Lifesaving Wrist Strap

CEO of the Iranian manufacturing company told ISNA that his team has designed and developed the inflatable lifesaving wristband which can easily keep the swimmers afloat in an emergency, without the need for a lifeguard.

Afshin Salari said thousands of people die from drowning in Iran every year, including a remarkable number of skilled swimmers and divers.

He noted that the lifesaving wristband made by his company is a smart product equipped with GPS location technology that could track the swimmers in danger of drowning by allocating an exclusive IP to each wearer.

The Iranian wrist strap has an air pressure control valve that could be utilized by the divers in deep water, and is also equipped with a compass and emergency lighting.

According to Salari, the homegrown lifesaving wristband enjoys greater advantages in comparison with the US-made product, such as higher capsule capacity and flexible airbag.

The Iranian lifesaving device could be also attached to all parts of the body, is sold under warranty, and costs one-tenth the price of similar foreign products, he said.

Salari finally noted that his company’s research and development team, including five experts, is working to optimize the products.
