Abstract

The aim of the research. To investigate the anti-infl ammatory eff ect of Cinquefoil on a model of a thermal wound. Material and methods. A liquid extract in 70 % ethyl alcohol was obtained from dry crushed goose cinquefoil by the percolation method. Th e resulting extracts were evaporated under vacuum at a temperature of 50 °C. Th e dry residue was dissolved in water immediately before treatment at a dose of 250 mg / kg. Th e evaluation of anti-infl ammatory activity was carried out in an experiment on 20 white male mice. Th ermal skin burns were simulated in all animals. Th e burns were healed in an open way. During the entire experiment, the general condition of the experimental animals was assessed, body weight and temperature were determined, the appearance of wounds, appetite, and activity were assessed. For histological examination, a section of the skin was taken, including the burn zones and intact tissues. Paraffi n sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Results. An analysis of the results of the experimental study showed that all experimental animals, under the infl uence of high temperatures, developed a third degree thermal burn of the skin, characterized by damage to the entire thickness of the skin with complete death of hair follicles, sweat and sebaceous glands. At the site of the burn, the skin was dense, motionless and insensitive to painful stimuli. Th e appearance of the wounds did not diff er between groups of animals. Comparative microscopy of the control and experimental groups showed that the depth of damage to the epidermis and dermis was more pronounced in the experimental group. In addition, in the same group, lymphocytic infi ltration of the dermis, hypodermis, the presence of a pronounced vascular reaction and edema of the dermis are more pronounced, which indicates a more pronounced infl ammatory. Conclusion. Th e analysis of the results obtained shows that in the treatment of burn wounds, the local application of the preparation Potentilla goose on the 4th day in the experiment does not lead to a pronounced anti-infl ammatory eff ect. However, the revealed lymphocytic infi ltration of the dermis and other histological parameters indicate more active processes in the tissues, which may subsequently lead to more accelerated wound cleansing and faster regeneration
