Full-thickness skin damage is a server issue and sometimes even dangerous to life. Many researches have been done toward full-thickness wound dressing. In this study, we demonstrated a facile and one-step procedure of SIS bilayer wound dressing. The top layer could protect the wound from bacterial infection and provide a moist environment suitable for wound healing, while the cryogel layer could promote cell proliferation. The SIS bilayer wound dressing has sufficient mechanical properties to protect wound from second damage and can maintain a moist environment for cell proliferation and migration at wound site. Bacterial permeation testing demonstrated that the bilayer scaffold had high efficiency in blocking bacteria at the wound site. In vivo tests and qRT-PCR results revealed that the bilayer group possessed a higher tendency toward keratinocyte proliferation and migration. The SIS bilayer has a high potential to use as full-thickness wound dressing.
