Millions of diabetics live in fear of a wound that won’t heal. One bad cut can cost a limb.
UC Riverside created a gel that delivers a continuous flow of oxygen directly into the deepest layers of injured tissue using a tiny battery-powered system. Chronic wounds spiral out of control because oxygen can’t reach where it’s needed. This gel fixes that.
No surgery. No skin grafts. Just a gel that breathes life into dying tissue.
Diabetes affects 537 million people. This could save millions of them from amputation.
