Efecto del limo de la salina de Guantánamo en la cicatrización por segunda intención en ratas Effect of the saline slime of Guantánamo in the scaring in a second intention in rats

A preclinical, experimental and analytical study was carried out, in 100 Sprague- Dawley rats to determine the effects of the saline slime from Guantanamo in the scaring for second intention in a model of incisional wound, by means of the simultaneous control to them. They were distributed in 4 groups: a study group and 3 control groups; the first ones were treated with slime and the second ones were treated with 0,9% NaCl; 4,0% NaCl and Hebermin®, respectively. It was verified that the wounds healed quicker with slime and that there was an effective acute inflammatory reaction when reducing the edema and the devitalized tissue, besides stimulating the angiogenesis, fibroplasia and reepitelization. It was concluded that the saline slime from Guantanamo has more effective healing properties than Hebermin® and 4,0% NaCl.
