Clinical and histological evaluation of the effect of bovine saliva on the experimentally induced open wounds on rabbit

Abstract EN

The use of bovine saliva as a wound dressing rriaterial.

In the present study, bovine saliva was_ applied to experimental by second intention on the eilrperimental wounds in rats, and it's effects on _ epithelization, wound contraction newly formed granulation tissue.

T f I.

We evaluated the time interval required for wound healing using a standard wound with and without bovine saliva.

The bovine saliva did interfere with a normal development of wound healing.

- Histological evaluation was considered to parameters the effect of bovine saliva on wound healing.

The effect appear to be due to an increase collagen activity, consequently improving the T _ collagen matrix and enhancing the breaking strength by lysosomes with saliva
