Abstract
The aim was to investigate the effects of common centaury (Centaurium erythraea) oil and laurel (Laurus nobilis) seed oil in a full-thickness excisional skin wound model in rats. In the study, 18 adult male Wistar rats were divided into three groups (n=6) as control (CO) group, common centaury oil (CCO) group, and laurel seed oil (LSO) group. Under general anesthesia, a full-thickness excisional wound (2.25 cm²) was created on the caudal of the interscapular region on the back of the rats. Treatments were applied topically once a day in all groups. Wound area measurements revealed that the use of CCO accelerated wound healing, while the use of LSO has disturbed. In the histopathological results, blood vessel formation, fiber synthesis, granulation and mononuclear cells in the wounds were higher in the CCO group than the other groups, and higher in the LSO group than the CO group. Biochemical results revealed differences between groups in TP, GLU and UREA values (p < 0.05). As a result of this study, it was determined that the topical use of common centaury oil accelerated wound healing, while laurel seed oil adversely affected wound healing in the experimental excisional full-thickness skin wound model in rats.
