In Vitro Wound Healing Potential and Identification of Bioactive Compounds from Moringa oleifera Lam
Figure 4
Digital image showing the effect of different fractions of M. oleifera on human dermal fibroblast migration in a wound scratch test assay: (a) (i): control without treatment; (ii): methanol; (iii): ethanol; (iv): aqueous extracts; (b) (i): control; (ii): n-hexane; (iii): dichloromethane; (iv): ethyl acetate; (v): n-butanol; (vi): aqueous fractions. A confluent monolayer of human dermal fibroblast (HDF) was scratched using a sterilised 200 L pipette tip. Different fractions were applied as treatments to the wounded (open gap) and fibroblast media served as control. Migration of fibroblast cells were captured and measured using light microscope attached to a digital camera. Magnification (4x).
