Abstract

Background: Nowadays, the use of honeys in the treatment of burns and wounds has aroused growing interest due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and healing properties. Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Diallium and Ziziphus honey in second degree burns on wistar rats. Methodology: A metal cylinder with a diameter of 3 cm was heated for five minutes. In order to cause experimental burns, the rats' shaved skin was lightly pressed with the cylinder for twenty seconds so as to induce second-degree burns. Results: The daily application of honey induces a healing dependent on typology and concentration. The healing rate is higher with DZ, with a score of 1.00 ± 0.63 vs 1.25 ± 0.43 for JUJ which induces almost complete tissue repair after 21 days of treatment. Conclusion: Findings from the research confirm the use of traditional honeys for burns and wound healing.
