The Effect of Camellia sinensis on Wound Healing Potential in an Animal Model

Table 1

Effect of methanolic extract of Camellia sinensis on percentage (%) of wound healing in Sprague Dawley rats.

Animal groups	Treatment	Percentage of wound healing (mean ± SD) on days after surgery
		Day 5	Day 10
Group 1	High dose, 200 mg/mL	61.9 ± 6.70^a	97.7 ± 0.94^a
Group 2	Low dose, 100 mg/mL	62.3 ± 3.99^a	94.5 ± 1.12^b
Group 3	Intrasite gel	60.3 ± 6.70^a	95.4 ± 1.29^b
Group 4	CMC in normal saline	45.0 ± 1.98^b	86.5 ± 2.40^c

Mean values (𝑛=6) followed by different letters (a, b, and c) in a column are significantly different (𝑃<0.05).
