Treatment of burns associated with diabetes with tannins extracted from Haloxylon salicornium and Zygophilium coccinium

The use of plant extracts is a successful method of treating diseases. Desert plants are rich in many anti-oxidant compounds, so they have been used since ancient times in folk medicine. The most important of these compounds are tannins that contain in their composition an oxidative hydroxyl group, which resists the free radical compounds, which are used in this study. From two plants of Haloxylon salicornium and Zygophilium coccinium (after proving their antioxidant activity by DPPH assay, with different concentrations for both plants), tannins were extracted and were used to treat burns in laboratory rabbits with diabetes and divided into different. The incidence of infection was confirmed by a histological, clinical, and microbiological study of the effect of extracts on the treatment period for the stability of their effectiveness for treatment. The results showed the effectiveness of these compounds on microorganisms and accelerated the treatment period despite diabetes and getting fast and effective results. Medicinal plants.
