FIGURE 9.

Progression of healing at 7 dPIT. Tissue from UT, PT, and BT wounds were H&E stained and examined at ×100 for evidence of inflammatory, proliferative, and remodelling stages of healing. Images were obtained and processed as described for Figure 4. The representative panoramic images show half of the wound bed plus normal skin at the wound margin. A, UT wound; B, PT wound; C, BT wound. BT, BDWG‐treated; Ed, edema; EH, epidermal hyperplasia; Fb, fibroblasts; FC, new fat cells; GT, granulation tissue; H&E, haematoxylin and eosin; HF, hair follicle; Nv, neovascularisation; PC, regenerating panniculus carnosus; PT, PEG‐treated; PEG, polyethylene glycol; S, scab, UT, untreated
