Abstract
On white nonlinear male rats (200-250 g), we investigated
the content of moisture, collagen, melted gelatin and the temperature
of welding in the skin of animals with full-thickness
wounds and chemical burn, without treatment and under the
treatment by a new pharmacological melanin-containing
composition. The physical and chemical indices of the skin
were examined on white nonlinear male rats (the full-thickness
wound was simulated with a stencil and surgical tweezers,
chemical burn, by subcutaneous injection with 0.1 ml (10%)
of CaCl2. Moisture content was reduced by 36% in a wound,
during chemical burn by 48%. In addition, we observed an
increase in the collagen content by 40 and 52%, respectively.
When correcting the pathology by melanin, the normalization
of the investigated parameters was detected. As tissue scarring
does not occur, the gelatin yield decreases in the cut wounds
by 40 %, and the skin welding temperature decreases. Тhe
melanin composition that we created can be recommended
as a dermatotropic agent for the treatment of skin wounds of
various origins.
