The three-dimensional in vitro models will represent advanced and complexsystems to perform more reliable preclinical studies. These models will be employed for in vitro screening of both antibacterial activity as wellas cytocompatibility of new biomaterials and wound dressings to optimize their in vivo performances. In the study, the 3D systems weredeveloped and their structure was characterized. The antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity of a model wound dressing releasing Ag+ wasanalyzed in the models.020406080100Percent Viability of Skin Equivalent  (%)Decreasing concentration of Ag+ 020406080100Ag+ MBC Ag+ wounddressingPercent Reduction of S. aureus in Liquid Broth CFU assay (%)77.47.88.28.699.49.8Ag+ MBC Ag+wounddressingUntreatedLog CFU per S. aureus Colonized Skin equivalent (Log) 3D Dermal Fibroblast Model020406080100Ag+ wounddressingWounddressingcontrol(Without Ag+)UntreatedcontrolPercent Viability of Skin Equivalent  (%)S. aureus Colonized Human Skin Equivalent - In Vitro Bio-evaluation Tool for Antibacterial Polymers: ESR14Optimizing the dermal part of human skin: Z-stacked imagingrevealed the filopodia like morphology and a uniform distributionof human fibroblasts at different planes inside a Col-I matrix.Fluorescent microscopic images show cell nuclei stained withDAPI and cytoskeletal F-actin stained with Phalloidin.

The 3D skin model was exposed to a range ofsilver ion concentrations (Ag+) for a period of 24 hours.A commercially available Ag+ releasing wound dressing served the purpose of a modelmaterial and was tested in a 3D system along with its control material (without Ag+).The graph demonstrates the treatment of infected skin equivalents with acommercially available Ag+ releasing wound dressing. Skin equivalents were infectedwith S.aureus and thereafter, Ag+ releasing wound dressing or Ag+ in PBS wasapplied onto the skin equivalents.Conclusion: Development of colonized human skin equivalent (c-HSE); Risk assessment platform for cytocompatibility evaluation; Efficacy assessment of antibacterial materials; Comparison of 2D vs. 3D systems; Understanding “Host-Pathogen Interaction”; Development of complex skin models.DEJLL Col ILD(a) (b) (a) (b)IHC verification of the HumanSkin Equivalent (HSE):(a) Keratin 14 (K14) red;(b) Keratin 10 (K10) green;(c) Ki67 (arrows) green;(d) Laminin 5 (Lam5) green;Cell nuclei are shown in blue byusing DAPI staining.
