    Author: Sadaf F, Saleem R, Ahmed M, Ahmad SI, Navaid-ul-Zafar.
    Journal: J Ethnopharmacol; 2006 Sep 19; 107(2):161-3. PubMed ID: 16765545.
    Abstract:
    A cream containing ethanolic extract of aerial parts of Sphaeranthus indicus, Linn. (Asteraceae) was evaluated for wound healing activity in guinea pigs. The cream was applied in vivo on the paravertebral area of six excised wounded models once a day for 15 days. The cream significantly enhanced the rate of wound contraction and the period of epithelialization comparable to neomycin.
