Group I: Carrageenan hydrogel (without any addition of Cissus quadrangularis; Group II: Carrageenan hydrogel with 10% w/v of Cissus quadrangularis aqueous extracts; Group III: Carrageenan hydrogel with 20% w/v of Cissus quadrangularis aqueous extracts; Group IV: Carrageenan hydrogel with 30% w/v of Cissus quadrangularis aqueous extracts; Intergroup comparison was carried out with one-way ANOVA, which showed a statistically significant difference in biocompatibility
