Pictures of cut wound healing on Sprague Dawley rats receiving DES formulations. Wounds of study groups observed at weeks 1 (day 7), 3 (day 21) and 5 (day 35). Unhealed wounds at week 1, with significant retraction of cut area in groups receiving positive controls F01 and B04. Mild retraction of cut wounds in animals receiving F02 and F03. No retraction in cut area of animals receiving B01 at week 3. At week 5, full healing without scarring in all groups except in animals receiving F02 and B01. Photographs in boxes are those most clinically healed at time of observation in comparison to the positive control.
