Advancements in Alginate‐Based Biomaterials for Enhanced Skin Regeneration: A Comprehensive Review
Alginate, a naturally occurring polysaccharide composed of β‐d‐mannuronate (M) and α‐l‐guluronate (G), has attracted widespread attention for skin regeneration applications due to its exceptional biocompatibility, biodegradability, and tunable physicochemical properties. Beyond its traditional role in maintaining a moist wound environment and providing
