Evaluation of the Wound-Healing Activity of Hydroalcoholic Extracts of the Seeds and Leaves of Mirabilis jalapa L. (Nyctaginaceae) on Experimental Burns in Rabbits

Introduction

Mirabilis jalapa L. is a medicinal plant traditionally used in wound treatment across various global regions. While its wound-healing potential has primarily been documented using leaf extracts, the therapeutic efficacy of seed extracts on burn wound models remains uninvestigated.

Purpose

This study aimed to evaluate and compare the burn wound-healing properties of hydroalcoholic extracts derived from M. jalapa leaves and seeds in rabbits.
