Polyherbal Green-Synthesised Silver Nanoparticle Gel: In Vitro Antimicrobial Activity and In Vivo Wound Healing Efficacy Using Mimosa pudica and Tribulus terrestris Extracts

Key Points

To evaluate the antimicrobial activity and wound healing efficacy of a silver nanoparticle gel derived from polyherbal extracts.
Conducted biochemical analysis on antioxidant enzyme activities
Assessed wound contraction in treated and control groups
Utilized Mimosa pudica and Tribulus terrestris extracts for gel synthesis
0.2% w/w AgNPs gel achieved 94.25% wound contraction by day 15
Untreated controls showed 48.35% wound contraction
Significant differences in antioxidant enzyme activities between treatment groups and control

Abstract

. Biochemical analysis showed differences in antioxidant enzyme activities, including CAT and glutathione peroxidase, between the treatment groups and the control. The 0.2% w/w AgNPs gel achieved 94.25% wound contraction by day 15 compared with 48.35% in untreated controls.ConclusionPH-AgNPs gel exhibited effective antimicrobial activity and accelerated wound healing, suggesting potential as a safer alternative to conventional silver-based wound therapies.
