Résumé

Our work is a contribution to the development and the design of hydrogels with improved properties intended to be used in wound dressing. Hydrogels based on poly (ethylene oxide) and poly (vinylpyrrolidone) were synthesized by the way of irradiation on gamma rays. They were characterized by the follow-up of their gelation rate and by the evaluation of their barrier properties against microbes using a microbiological study.
