About this ebook
This innovative book explores advanced nano-formulations derived from tobacco stem and their impressive efficacy in healing wounds, as demonstrated on Wistar rats. Chromatographic analysis identified key flavonoids such as quercetin, rutin, and tannic acid, revealing potent antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. The study highlights the synthesis of silver nanoparticles from these flavonoids, showcasing remarkable properties, including sub-100nm particle size and significant antimicrobial effectiveness against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The book also explores the angiogenic activity of these extracts, demonstrating their ability to promote blood vessel formation in CAM models. With evidence of early wound contraction and comprehensive histopathology studies, these nanogels emerge as powerful agents for wound healing, offering a potent, herbal-based solution for enhanced healing and recovery.
