How Electricity Can Heal Wounds Three Times as Fast

“We’ve [researchers at Chalmers University in Sweden] looked at diabetes models of wounds and investigated whether our method could be effective even in those cases. We saw that when we mimic diabetes in the cells, the wounds on the chip heal very slowly. However, with electric stimulation we can increase the speed of healing so that the diabetes-affected cells almost correspond to healthy skin cells.”        MORE
