Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biopolymers have interesting physical and chemical properties, structures, and biological activity required to promote wound healing. In addition, they can be processed into a variety of shapes (i.e., films, fibers, gels, and particles). They are often associated with cells and/or therapeutic biomolecules to further improve wound healing. Moreover, the modification of biopolymers with different functional groups has led to the development of stimuli-responsive materials, in which it is possible to trigger the release of therapeutic molecules in biological environments with different characteristics. This Special Issue highlights some of the most promising approaches to biopolymer materials for wound healing applications. We invite articles on all aspects of research in this field, which may help to accelerate scientific knowledge and reach clinical applications.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Pharmaceutics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
