Topical Application Effect of the Isolectin Hydrogel (Cramoll 1,4)‎ on Second-Degree Burns: Experimental Model

الملخص EN

This study aimed at evaluating the use of hydrogel isolectin in the treatment of second-degree burns.

Twenty male rats were randomly divided into two groups (G1 = treatment with hydrogel containing 100 μg/mL Cramoll 1,4 and G2 = Control, hydrogel).

After 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 days, animals were euthanized.

On the 7th day, G1 showed intense exudates, necrosis and edema.

On the 14th day, G1 showed tissue reepithelialization and moderate autolysis.

On the 21st day, G1 showed intense fibroblastic proliferation, presence of dense collagen, and moderate fibrosis.

On the 28th day, G1 showed complete tissue epithelialization.

On the 35th day, G1 showed modeled dense collagen.

The significant wound contraction was initiated from day, 14 in the G1.

There were no significant differences in biochemical and hematological parameters analyzed.

These results extend the potential of therapeutic applications for Cramoll 1,4 in the treatment of thermal burns.
