Regenerative Potential of Characterized Honey in Wound Healing

This study found that platelet-rich plasma improved the healing of skin wounds in sheep compared to honey by reducing early inflammation and enhancing collagen synthesis and organization.

In a study using female Wistar rats, the researchers found that a liquid allantoin-enriched pectin hydrogel significantly improved wound healing, achieving a 71.43% reduction in healing time and complete wound closure in 15 days.

This study developed and tested a new injectable hydrogel for chronic diabetic wounds, reporting significant improvements in wound healing through enhanced angiogenesis, epithelization, and reduction of inflammation and infection in animal models.

In this study, researchers developed a multifunctional hydrogel for wound healing, incorporating antibacterial and antioxidant properties that demonstrated significant inflammation reduction and tissue regeneration in animal models, with high antibacterial efficacy against E. coli and S. aureus.

This study reported that a newly developed hydrogel composed of recombinant type I collagen and chitosan, incorporating a metal–polyphenol structure, demonstrated strong mechanical and healing properties, effectively promoting wound healing in a full-thickness skin defect model.
