A standard deep second degree burn was worked out in pigs. The burn was inflicted with a hot iron, standardized by immediate retraction measurements. Biopsies were taken from the wounds on days 0, 1, 4, 7, 14, 21. Standard staining methods were used. Spontaneous healing was followed and results compared with mechanical partial skin loss healing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
