TLDR Superoxidized electrolyzed solution (SES) is more effective for burn healing than common antiseptics.
This study evaluated the efficacy of superoxidized electrolyzed solution (SES) in healing full-thickness burns in a mouse model, using 252 BALB/c mice. SES, particularly at low concentration (SES-low) and in combination with a gel (SES-low + G), significantly improved wound healing compared to common antiseptics like nitrofurazone and silver sulfadiazine. SES-low showed better wound closure, reduced inflammation, and more organized collagen deposition. By day 32, all treatments achieved wound closure, but SES-low was the most effective in promoting favorable and organized healing. The study suggests SES treatments may enhance burn wound healing due to their anti-inflammatory properties and ability to modulate immune responses. Further research is needed to optimize its use in clinical settings.
