## Abstract

Disclosed is a composition for treating a wound including a dermis-derived extracellular matrix and a method for preparing the composition. By using the composition for treating a wound according to the present invention, the composition can be applied to wounds of various sizes and depths by increasing the viscosity of the composition, the composition is well coagulated without falling off for a certain period of time after application to a wound surface, and the composition can promote recovery.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A composition for treating wounds consisting essentially of:
a first biopolymer crosslinked to a dermal extracellular matrix (ECM); and
a second biopolymer; wherein:
the first biopolymer is selected from the group consisting of collagen, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, carboxymethylcellulose, alginate, gelatin, and hydroxyapatite;
the second biopolymer is selected from the group consisting of collagen, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, carboxymethylcellulose, alginate, gelatin, and hydroxyapatite, or the second biopolymer is a crosslinked product of a biopolymer selected from the group consisting of collagen, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, carboxymethylcellulose, alginate, gelatin, and hydroxyapatite;
the content of the first biopolymer crosslinked to a dermal extracellular matrix is 5 parts to 40 parts by weight with respect to the total weight of the composition, and the composition for treating wounds has a complex viscosity of 1,000 Pa S to 10,000 Pa S;
wherein the first biopolymer crosslinked to a dermal extracellular matrix is prepared by:
i) removing a lipid component from skin tissue of a human;
ii) preparing dermal ECM by removing cells from adipose tissue from which the lipid component is removed;
iii) freeze-drying the adipose tissue from which cells are removed;
iv) powdering the freeze-dried lyophilizate;
v) preparing a first biopolymer crosslinked to a dermal extracellular matrix by crosslinking the powdered dermal ECM and the first biopolymer;
vi) freeze-drying the crosslinked dermal ECM-first biopolymer product; and
vii) powdering the freeze-dried lyophilizate;
viii) preparing the second biopolymer by crosslinking the biopolymer using a crosslinking agent; and drying the resulting crosslinked product, wherein the crosslinking agent of the first biopolymer and the second biopolymer is selected from the group consisting of 1,4-butandiol diglycidyl ether (BDDE), ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDGE), 1,6-hexanediol diglycidyl ether, propylene glycol diglycidyl ether, polypropylene glycol diglycidyl ether, polytetramethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, neopentyl glycol diglycidyl ether, polyglycerol polyglycidyl ether, diglycerol polyglycidyl ether, glycerol polyglycidyl ether, tri-methylpropane polyglycidyl ether, 1,2-(bis(2,3-epoxypropoxy)ethylene, pentaerythritol polyglycidyl ether, and sorbitol polyglycidyl ether; and
