Microbiological And Angiogenic Properties Of Burn Injuries Treated With Tualang Honey Versus Silver-Based Dressing

Honey as a dressing for burn wounds has been widely used. However the potential and the underlying mechanism of action of Tualang honey has not been studied. This project studied the microbiological activities and angiogenic properties of Tualang honey in the treatment of burn injuries. Twenty conse...
