The school's top doctor - Nikolai Ostrovsky on May 31 - told the press that the new material is made up of nanofibers, which can be used to make ultra-thin strips. like a bandage, then used to apply to the skin to treat skin damage such as burn injury and cold damage.

The scientists also added drugs to the nanofibers to help promote cell regeneration faster. Experiments show that this new material can heal wounds three times faster than normal without scarring.

In addition, after using a ribbon made of this material to cover the outside, people will not need to remove it, because it can dissipate on the surface of the skin.

This invention has acquired relevant Russian patent rights and will soon be put into production in large quantities.

There is no denying that the study has opened a big door for the widespread use of this material in the medical world.
