The wound healing ability of the prepared ointment incorporating herbal Extracts

Abstract

Physical injuries or wounds are the physical damage to the skin. The human body naturally possesses the wound healing ability to heal physical damages. The wound healing was initiated in the human body in various mechanisms, and it occurs in three phases. The plants like Musa and Tridax have been evaluated for the wound healing activity, and the extracts were seen toxic to the body too. So in this research, the ointment formulation was prepared using the extracts of the two plants that are extracted with water as the solvent. The polyherbal ointment was prepared using the herbal extracts that were extracted from the parts of Tridax and Musa using the distilled water as a solvent. The prepared ointments showed a better activity compared to the crude extracts and the standard drug too.
