Summary of advantages and disadvantages of CNC scaffolds as reported by Suteris et al. [28].

Advantages	Disadvantages
1. High porosity responsible for absorbing excess wound exudation and preventing microbial infiltration	1. Scarring
2. Outstanding results in cell adhesion, multiplication, motility, and diversification	2. Wound constriction
3. Substantial surface area for drug loading and administration	3. Inadequate host cell/tissue integration
4. Oxygen permeability through the dressing	4. Limited due to the challenges associated with selecting reasonably priced and ecologically suitable solvents
5. Water vapour transfer to give sufficient moisture for wound healing
