Abstract
Materials based on polydimethylsiloxane have been developed with antibacterial activity and mechanical properties required for wound treatment. Sage herb (raw, modified, and polyphenol extract) was used as a filler in an amount of 5 and 10% by weight. Physicochemical, mechanical, and biological properties were examined. The results indicate a beneficial effect of sage modification on the tested properties.
