ABSTRACT
The study was aimed to evaluate wound healing activity of 70% ethanolic and methanolic extracts of leaves of Wrightia tinctoria (Roxb) R. Br (Apocynaceae) using incision and excision wound models on Wistar rats. Wound contraction and period of epithelization were assessed in excision wound model whereas wound tensile strength was determined in case of incision wound model. 4% Wrightia tinctoria methanolic leaf extract phytosome exhibited significant wound healing potential when compared with standard 0.2% nitrofurazone ointment.
