The invention discloses a functional material for promoting healing of diabetic wounds as well as a preparation method and application of the functional material, and belongs to the technical field of biomedical materials. The functional material is a
copper sulfide-polyethyleneimine nano
composite material (CuS-PEI). The preparation method of the CuS-PEI nano
composite material comprises the following steps: firstly, preparing
copper sulfide nano particles, and then carrying out
surface modification on the
copper sulfide nano particles by using polyethyleneimine to obtain the CuS-PEI nano
composite material. The invention is mainly applied to preparation of diabetes
wound treatment drugs or dressings. Under the
irradiation of near-
infrared second-area light, the material generates a
photothermal effect to realize physical sterilization; meanwhile, under
double stimulation of photo-thermal and acidic microenvironments, the material can controllably degrade and release copper ions (Cu < 2 + >) and
hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Released Cu < 2 + > plays a chemical bacteriostatic role, and H2S is used for inhibiting
inflammation and promoting tissue regeneration. According to the invention, photo-thermal antibacterial,
ion bacteriostasis, anti-inflammatory and regeneration promotion functions are integrated, and an efficient and safe new strategy is provided for treatment of diabetic
refractory wounds.
