Injectable Chitosan-Methoxy Polyethylene Glycol Hybrid Hydrogel Untangling the Wound Healing Behavior: In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation.

Wound healing, particularly for difficult-to-treat wounds, presents a serious threat and may lead to complications. Currently available dressings lack mucoadhesion, safety, efficacy, and, most importantly, patient compliance. Herein, we developed a unique, simple, and inexpensive injectable chitosan-methoxy polyethylene glycol (chitosan-mPEG) hybrid hydrogel with tunable physicochemical and mechanical properties for wound healing.

The wound healing potential of Hedychium spicatum Sm. and Zinnia peruviana (L.) ethanolic extracts against excision wound model in rats.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Medicinal plants used for wound healing, are key to unlock the doors for combating the resistance of pathogens by provision of new source of compounds.

Aim Of The Study: This study is aimed to evaluate and compare the wound healing properties of ethanolic extract of Hedychium spicatum Sm. rhizome and of Zinnia peruviana's leaves and roots.
