Abstract
Physical and antimicrobial properties of a newly developed gelatin based spray‐on foam bandage for use on skin wounds have been evaluated. The aqueous foam is sprayed from aerosol containers and effectively covers and washes uneven wound surfaces. The foam dries to form an adherent and stable three‐dimensional matrix which diminishes evaporative water losses. The foam possesses antimicrobial activity against gram‐positive, gram‐negative, and fungal contaminants.
