Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the healing activity of two honeys from Casamance (Senegal) in a second-degree experimental burn model in the Wistar strain rat. Methodology: Experimental burns were induced using a metal cylinder 3 cm in diameter and heated for 5 min. The cylinder was applied for 20 seconds, pressing lightly on the surface of the rats' shaved skin to induce second-degree burns. Results: The daily application of honey induces a healing dependent on concentration and typology. The healing rate is higher with AF, with a score of 0.60 ± 0.48 vs 1.00 ± 0.00 for MZ which induces almost complete tissue repair after 21 days of treatment. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrate the use of traditional honey in wound healing and burns.
