Wound healing contraction

When collagen-GAG matrices which can significantly delay the onset of wound contraction are seeded with a minimum density of easily separable skin cells (basal cells) from the same animal, and the cell-seeded matrices are then grafted, wound healing is affected in an even more profound way In this case,...

The body requires nutrients for cell growth, cellular functions, muscle contraction, wound healing, and other vital activities. Nutrients enter the body as food and are absorbed as chemical reactions break down food into molecules that enter the bloodstream where they are distributed throughout the body. 

Actions External use antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiviral, wound healing accelerator, anti-inflammatory, antiulcer. Internal use purgative, stimulates smooth muscle contractions.
