### New Bandage Technology for Diabetic Patients Researchers at Northwestern University have developed a new bandage that is easier to apply and remove, and it enhances the body's natural healing ability. This is particularly important for people with diabetes, as they are more prone to infections and slow healing. The bandage uses a protein segment called A5G81, which is crucial for wound healing. When applied, the bandage is in liquid form and quickly turns into a gel at body temperature, fitting the wound perfectly. It can be removed gently with saline, avoiding damage to the skin. This new technology aims to speed up the healing process and reduce the risk of infections, potentially saving limbs and lives.
