Combined action of Vernonia amygdalinaone of the herbs belonging to the family Asteraceae and other pharmacognostic raw materials has been used in traditional medicine for ages. It produces quick therapeutic results in the treatment of various conditions and diseases such as malaria, diabetes, inflammation, hypertension to mention but few. Aim: This work is the“screening of wound healing effect of Elaeis guineensis oil, extract of vernonia amygdalina, mixed with egg albumin on burn wound inflicted guinea pig”. Method: Five male guinea pigs were used for the study. Burn injury was inflicted on the anaesthetized guinea pigs using hot metallic knife. The extract at different doses (low, medium and high conc.) was applied on the injury for subject A – C respectively, subject D (Negative control) was cleaned with only Normal saline and Dermazin cream (Positive control) was applied on the injury for subject E. Result: The measurement of wound contraction and epithelialization were observed and results were recorded after 7days, 14days and 21days respectively. There was initial increase in burn wound surface area in the guinea pig used as negative control before the wound contraction and epithelilization reduced a bit. There was rapid reduction in the wound size of the guinea pig treated with the medium concentration of the extract and the dermazin cream (positive control), although the dermazin healed neatly, the medium concentration of the extract healed faster. The results obtained encourage the use of the mixture of v. amygdalina, palmoil and egg albumin in wound healing.
