Effect of extract and fractions on epithelialisation time in rats
| Extract/fractions | Dose (mg/kg) | Epithelialisation | |
| Time (Days) | Reduction (%) | ||
| ME | 200 | 7.67 ± 0.33a | 25.75 |
| 400 | 8.33 ± 0.33a | 19.36 | |
| HF | 200 | 8.00 ± 0.00a | 22.56 |
| 400 | 8.30 ± 0.33a | 19.65 | |
| MF | 200 | 6.67 ± 0.67a | 35.43 |
| 400 | 7.67 ± 0.88a | 25.75 | |
| Control | - | 10.33 ± 0.67 | - |
