• Moist, breathable and antibacterial microenvironment can promote cell proliferation and migration, which is beneficial to wound healing. Here, we fabricated a novel sodium alginate-chitosan oligosaccharide‑zinc oxide (SA-COS-ZnO) composite hydrogel by spontaneous Schiff base reaction, using aldehydated sodium alginate (SA), chitosan oligosaccharide (COS), and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles, which can provide a moist and antibacterial environment for wound healing. The porosity and swelling degree of SA-COS-ZnO hydrogel are 80% and 150%, respectively, and its water vapor permeability is 682 g/m2/24h. The composite hydrogel showed good biocompatibility to blood cells, 3T3 cells, and 293T cells, and significant antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, and Bacillus subtilis. Moreover, the hydrogel showed a promoting effect on wound healing in a rat scald model. The present study suggests that marine carbohydrates composite hydrogels are promising in wound care management.
