Evaluation of the Effects of Honey on Acute-Phase Deep Burn Wounds
Figure 6
Brown nuclei (positive for anti-HMGB1 antibody) indicate normal cells, while blue nuclei (negative for anti-HMGB1 antibody) reveal necrotic cells. Normal skin (a) has a lot more normal nuclei than all other groups. On day 1, the acacia honey group (c) has a lot more normal nuclei than the SSD group (b) in the location of s1 (see Figure 1). On day 4, the no treatment (e) and manuka honey (f) groups have a lot of necrotic nuclei in the location of s1. Negative control slide (d) is not stained. E: epidermis, A: appendage, and D: dermis.
