Bee Pollen as a Promising Agent in the Burn Wounds Treatment

Figure 2

The microscopic changes of skin samples collected from burn wounds on the 21st day of the experiment: (a) untreated (I: regenerated stratified squamous epithelium on the sample edge, II: vessel-rich and cell-rich granulation tissue); (b) washed with NaCl (I: eschar, II: regenerated stratified squamous epithelium, and III: vessel-rich and cell-rich inflammatory granulation tissue); (c) treated with SSD (I: a slightly swollen dermis, II: eschar with petechial hemorrhages, and III: regenerated stratified squamous epithelium); (d) treated with bee pollen (I: connective tissue scar covered with epithelium and II: inflammatory granulation tissue with predominating collagen fibers).

(a) Untreated (C1)

(b) NaCl (C2)

(c) SSD (E1)

(d) Bee pollen (E2)
