A Novel Organic Composite Accelerates Wound Healing: Experimental and Clinical Study in Equine.

The research article investigates the wound healing potential of a natural composite mixture made up of rosemary and chamomile oils, along with honey, on equine-skin wounds. The study concludes that the composite mixture accelerates wound healing efficiently and rapidly.

Methodology

• The study used two sections for evaluation: an experimental approach with donkeys and a clinical application with over a hundred equine subjects.
• In the experimental part, each donkey had a skin wound introduced on both sides of its back. All left-sided wounds were treated with saline, while right-sided wounds were treated with different substances: gentamycin, zinc, Kruuse Manuka, Revan, and the rosemary-chamomile oils composite.
• Each wound was treated daily until one wound healed completely.
• For clinical evaluation, different forms of equine wounds were dressed with the composite mixture daily and monitored until healing.

Findings

• Experimentally, wounds treated with the rosemary-chamomile oils and honey composite healed first compared to other treatments.
• Upon histological examination, the composite induced complete and efficient skin regeneration, while other treatments showed incomplete regeneration of the epidermis and dermis.
• In clinical cases, the composite mixture accelerated the healing of different forms of equine wounds.
• Thus, the rosemary-chamomile oils and honey composite induced efficient and rapid skin regeneration in both experimental and clinical implementation.

Significance

• The research suggests that the tested composite is a promising natural treatment in accelerating wound healing.
• The composite holds potential to be a preferred treatment option to enhance skin regeneration in veterinary practices, especially for equine injuries.
• The study also reinforces the healing potential of natural products such as rosemary and chamomile oils, and honey, particularly for skin regeneration.
