Table 2.

Percentage of wound contraction on different day in different groups.

Day Control Povidone Iodine Extract Treated



Day 3 14.1 ± 4.7 40.9 ± 4.6* 50.5 ± 2*a
Day 5 23.2 ± 1.8 53.5 ± 3* 72.9 ± 1*a
Day 7 27.9 ± 0.9 63.5 ± 1.4* 80.5 ± 1.4*a
Day 14 67.6 ± 1.1 95.4 ± 1* 98.7 ± 0.7*

All data are expressed as Mean ± SD (n = 6). (*) Signifies both plant extract and povidone Iodine caused statistically significant (p < 0.001) wound contraction compared to the control. (a) Signifies that the difference in wound contraction between povidone Iodine and plant extract was statistically significant. (p < 0.001).
