dc.description.abstractGoat skin and hooves produce significant waste which can provide collagen for burn wound gel bandages when incorporated with DMMMSU honey. This study was conducted to: (1) determine the inflammation scores, rate of wound contraction, and epithelialization period; (2) determine the most effective concentration of gel bandage; and (3) asses the costs of the gel bandages. Twenty-five mice were randomly distributed into five treatment groups, with qualitative and quantitative evaluations using mixed ANOVA T2 (75% goat gelatin and 25% honey) exhibited the best anti-inflammatory properties. T3 (50% goat gelatin and 50% honey) exhibited the highest wound contraction percentage and fastest epithelialization. Gel bandages with goat gelatin and honey achieved complete healing in under 21 days: T2 and T3 in 18 days, T4 (25% goat gelatin and 75% honey) in 19 days. These treatments exhibited better wound healing, and the production costs are less expensive than the commercial gel bandage.
