Wound Healing Potential using Nanofibres with Murraya Koenigii Extracts and Insilico Analysis for Therapeutic Application

Abstract

Medicinal plants act as a rich source for antimicrobial agents and used as drugs and cosmetics due to their medicinal properties. Over the past several years, great progress has been made on improvement of herbal drug delivery systems for plant actives and extracts. Herbal polymer patch is an effective product for topical herbal drug systems to deliver active compound to skin. Using bioactive polymers and plant extracts, novel herbal formulation especially polymeric nanofibres can be fabricated by electrospinning. This electrospinning technique has been renowned as a simple and versatile method for fabrication of polymer nanofibres. In recent times, research has been focused on incorporating medicinal plant extracts with natural polymer based electrospun nanofibres due to their uniqueness and applications. Such herbal nanofibres can be prepared by incorporating medicinal plant extract into the nanofibres of natural polymer by electrospinning technique. Electrospinning has produced great interest among scientists due to its very simple, low cost method to produce nanofibre which has exhibited outstanding properties such as high porosity and a high specific surface area. newline
