Objective: The Algan Hemostatic Agent (AHA) is a novel herbal originated blood stopper. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of AHA on wound healing on excisional wound model in rats.
Methods: In this study, 54 adult Wistar albino rats were used. Rats were divided into 3 groups (saline, Madecassol and AHA). Each group was then divided into 3 subgroups as 3rd, 7th and 14th days. Two wounds were created in the dorsal thoracic region of the rats. One of the lesions was used for histopathological examinations and the other for hydroxyproline measurement. In order to evaluate the wound healing, wound area were measured during the whole treatment period and animals were sacrificed at the end of 3rd, 7th and 14th days and tissue samples were taken for the determination of hydroxyproline levels.
Results: AHA treatment did not cause significantly difference in hydroxyproline level on days 3, 7, 14. The contraction percentage of wound area was higher in the AHA group on day 7 than control group. However, the difference was not statistically significant (p> 0.05). On days 3 and 14, no significant difference was detected in the contraction percentage of wound area between the control and AHA groups. AHA and Madecassol results of epidermis regeneration on the 14th day, neutrophil infiltration on the 7th day and edema on the 3rd, 7th and 14th days were different in terms of histopathological parameters compared to the control group.
Conclusion: Despite good histological findings, AHA did not significantly accelerate wound healing. but did not adversely affect on wound healing. AHA may be used safely on excisional wounds.
