From: Ectopic expression of human acidic fibroblast growth factor 1 in the medicinal plant, Salvia miltiorrhiza, accelerates the healing of burn wounds

Figure 5

Extracts from transgenic plants accelerate the burn wound healing process. Second degree burn wounds were administered on the dorsal skin of SD rats. The area of the burn wounds was treated with (A), 100 μL of saline (B) aqueous extract from wild type plants; (C), 1000 ng of commercial FGF-1, and; (D) 100 μL of aqueous extract from transgenic S. miltiorrhiza. Photographs were taken on Day 0, 3, 7, 14 and 21 after burn injury was administered.
