The Clerodendrum infortunatiom Linn (CI) is one of the most important medicinal plant containing different properties like anti-inflammatory activities, anti-microbial activities, wound healing, promotes neo-vascularisation, and reduces oxidative stress. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the wound healing activity of hydro-alcoholic (70% ethanol) leaves extract of C. infortunatum Linn as 4 % ointment in cutaneous wound model in diabetic rats. Open excision wounds of 2×2 cm2 were experimentally created on the interscapular region of dorsal aspect of the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats to evaluate the time dependent (days 3, 7 and 15) wound healing effects of C. infortunatum ointment (4%). | Efficacy of Clerodendrum infortunatum on wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
