Background: Despite a growing consensus that biofilms contribute to a delay in the healing
of chronic wounds, conflicting evidence pertaining to their identification and management …

Background Biofilms are ubiquitous, and have been observed in both acute and chronic
wounds. Their role in wound healing and infection, however, remains controversial. The aim …

Nrf2 and NF-κB transcription factors act in wound healing via their anti-inflammatory and anti-
oxidant effects or through the immune response. Studying this process is a matter of some …
