Abstract:Mucilage is a sticky substance found in various plants and microorganisms and is made up of proteins and polysaccharides. Mucilage from Hibiscus rosa sinensisis is a complex polysaccharide traditionally used to treat different skin diseases. In our study, we fabricated mucilage polymer from Hibiscus rosa sinensis leaves and evaluated its potential application in second-degree burns and excision wounds. The physical properties of Hibiscus mucilage (HM) polymer were demonstrated by using ultraviolet-visible abso… Show more
