Abstract
A wound dressing for covering a wound to the body, providing slow release of a combination of collagenic protein and oligosaccharide, enhancing vapor transmission from the wound, and enhancing healing comprises an aqueous combination of collagen and oligosaccharide coated on a mesh surface and dehydrated to a low moisture content. The ratio of oligosaccharide to collagenic protein ranges from 1:100 to 100:1, with a content (dry basis) of collagen at about 0.1 to 30 percent and oligosaccharide in the dressing at about 0.1 to 20 percent.
