Application of Fish Collagen-Nanochitosan-Henna Extract Composites for the Control of Skin Pathogens and Accelerating Wound Healing

Table 1

Antimicrobial activity of synthesized agents against shin pathogens measured as zone of inhibition (ZOI, mm) and minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC, μg/mL).

Agent	Candida albicans		Staphylococcus aureus
	ZOI	MIC	ZOI	MIC
He	^a	27.5	^a	30.0
NCht	^b	45.0	^b	47.5
NCht/He	^c	22.5	^c	20.0
Vancomycin	ND	ND	^c	15.0
Nystatin	^c	17.5	ND	ND

“Inhibition zones impart triplicates’ diameter , assay discs (6 mm diameter) carried 50 μg from henna extract (He), nanochitosan (NCht), their blend (NCht/He), or standard antibiotic”. “Dissimilar superscript letters within the same column indicated significant difference at .”. ND: not detected.
