摘要：Healing Second degree burns can be affected by the presence of bacteria. This research reveals the role of honey and MEBO in removing bacterial effects on healing. Pure experimental research method with a completely randomized design (CRD). There were 4 treatments, which were positive, negative, honey and MEBO treatment, each of which was given to rats with second degree burns. Wound healing and other parameters were observed on 7th, 14th and 21st days. The result was that the administration of honey as an antibacterial drug was very effective and gave healing on the 21st day to white rats. Giving MEBO as an antibacterial drug is very effective and provides healing on the 21st day to white rats. Giving honey is more effective than MEBO as an antibacterial drug and healing burns on 21st day against white rats.

摘要：The local treatment of burn wounds has long been a subject of debate. The objective of this study was to compare the cost and the effectiveness of Moist Exposed Burn Ointment -MEBO versus a combination of povidone iodine plus bepanthenol cream for partial thickness burns.

摘要：Skin wounds represent an enormous clinical and financial problem in equine. The present study evaluated the effect of Panthenol gel and Mebo ointment on metacarpal wounds healing in donkeys. This experimental study was carried out on eighteen adult donkeys divided into three groups each of six donkeys. All animals were exposed to creation of 2?× 2 cm full-thickness skin wound on the dorsal aspect of the metacarpal regions of both forelimbs. All the wounds were cleaned daily with sterile gauze soaked with sterile distilled water. For the Panthenol gel group, 1 finger tip unit (0.5?g) of Panthenol gel was applied once daily over the wound surfaces. For the Mebo ointment group, 1 finger tip unit (0.5?g) of Mebo ointment was applied once daily over the wound surfaces. For control group, the wounds were cleaned with sterile gauze soaked with sterile distilled water without application of any treatment. The wound healing process was compared by gross observation, geometrical assessments of percentage wound contraction, percentage wound epithelialization, percentage wound healing, and histopathological examination. The wound contraction, wound epithelialization, and wound healing percentages in the Panthenol gel group were significantly higher than other groups and by the end of seventh week, all animals’ wounds in the Panthenol gel group had complete healing. Mebo ointment group had no a significant effect on wound epithelialization and wound healing percentages. In conclusion, the study recommended the use of Panthenol gel as an effective and low-cost wound healing promoting agent for full-thickness skin wounds in donkeys.

摘要：Facial burns vary from relatively minor insults to severe debilitating injuries. Sustaining a burn injury is often a psychological trauma for the victim and is especially menacing when the face and neck are involved. This study was carried out on 60 patients with superficial dermal burns to the face admitted to the Burn Unit of Tanta University Hospital, Egypt, from September 2007 to July 2008. The patients were allocated randomly to one of three groups, each of which was treated with one of the following: sodium carboxymethyl-cellulose silver (Aquacel Ag?), MEBO? (moist exposed burn ointment), or saline-soaked dressing. We found that patients managed with MEBO? had less pain and itching and easier movement than those managed with Aquacel Ag?, while the Aquacel Ag? group required a shorter duration of time for healing, without any bad odour, than the MEBO? group. Quality of healing and patient satisfaction were nearly equal as regards MEBO? and Aquacel Ag?. Saline-soaked dressings were least satisfactory - they caused the most pain and itching, limited the patients' movements the most, needed the longest time for healing, and gave patients the least satisfaction. It was concluded that MEBO? was an excellent choice for management of facial burns owing to its soothing effect, ease of patient movement, easy handling, and good healing properties. Aquacel Ag? was found to be comparable to MEBO? and is specially recommended when frequent dressings cause difficulties for the patients or when they cannot accept a bad odour; saline-soaked dressings are not recommended for the management of facial burns because of the pain they cause, itching, limitation of patient movement, and delayed healing.
