Wound Healing Activity of the Chloroform Extract of Plumbago rosea Linn. and Plumbagin

Abstract
The wound healing activity of plumbagin and the chloroform extract of Plumbago roxea Linn. (Yoot), incorporated into ointments with yellow soft paraffin, have been investigated on rats. Wound healing activity was studied using excision and incision wound models in rats following topical application. Both plumbagin and the Plumbago rosea root extract produced a significant response in both of the wound models studied.
