Analyzing the antimicrobial effects of herbal extracts to improve burns infections

Background and Aim : The repair of skin lesions depends largely on the regenerative role of fibroblast cells in the regeneration of the extracellular environment, which contains large amounts of collagen. One of the leading causes of death and disability in the world is skin burns and the resulting lesions. Burn injuries are more prevalent in developing countries, leading to long-term disability and hospitalization, and even death. Today, due to the increasing growth of microbes resistant to common antibiotics on the one hand and the lack of antimicrobial compounds, on the other hand, it is necessary to continue research on the identification of new antimicrobial compounds. For many years, natural remedies, especially herbs, have been the basis and in some cases, the only treatment. Many of the plants used in traditional medicine are indigenous and studies on the effectiveness of medicinal plants on Staphylococcus aureus And Escherichia Coli have occurred all over the world.Methods : After confirming the antimicrobial effect of fennel, black cumin, thyme, and white tea to prepare the burn ointment, the glycerin is poured into a sterile beaker and placed in a bain-marie (direct heat using water vapor) and then melted. When it cools down a bit (before it closes), add thyme extracts, fennel, black cumin, white tea, zinc oxide, and vitamin E to it.Results : Because bacterial resistance is increasing and transmission of resistance from resistant bacteria to susceptible bacteria is easily done in various ways and causes resistance to common antibiotics, the extract of medicinal plants with antibacterial properties can be used as an alternative or complementary compound in the treatment of bacterial infections. Overall, the results of this study show that the medicinal plant can be used as a quick and effective healer to heal skin wounds and has faster and better effectiveness than antibiotics.Conclusion : With these interpretations, it can be said that plant extracts alone or in combination with other antimicrobial agents can be useful in treating bacterial infections. However, additional and in vivo tests are needed to assess the possible toxicity of the extract, to study its properties and effects, and to obtain appropriate concentrations for use in living organisms.
