Old fermented butter, Smen, as a potential product for wound healing in a mouse incisional wound model: Antibacterial and histological studies

Key Points

• Smen shows notable antibacterial effects against specific bacteria in the wound site, supporting infection control.
• In the mouse model, wounds treated with smen exhibited improved healing compared to control, with significant histological changes.
• Assessment using an incisional wound model demonstrated distinct histological improvements after smen application, alongside noticeable antibacterial action.
• These findings highlight the potential of smen as a novel treatment approach for enhancing wound healing in clinical settings.
