Purpose: The present study has revealed the effect of electromagnetic field and moringa oleifera leaves extract on wound healing in rats in order to improve the healing process of an experimental excised wound on back of rats.
Methods: Thirty five healthy Sprague-Dawley female rats weighting (150-200 g) were divided equally into seven groups, an experimental excised wound on back of rats ( 1.5cm X 1.5cm ) were carried out. Control group G1, groups G2,G3andG4 exposed to extremely low frequency magnetic field of 50HZ and magnetic flux density 2mT for 1hr,1.5hr and 2hr respectively . groups G5,G6 andG7 treated with leaf extract moringa with concentration of 12.5%,25% and50% respectively . Wound area were measured daily on day 0,3,7,10,14,17and 21 and photographic for wound were taken, Blood samples were collected at day 21 for all groups for measuring the changes in some hematological parameters .
Results: showed that group G2 exposed and treated with electro magnetic field for 1hr had faster rates of wound healing with shorter days of contraction where the number of RBCs ,HB and WBCs increased at p ≤ 0.05 since observed over control and after that the treated group with moringa leaves extract G5 of concentration of 12.5%.
Conclusion: magnetic field of 1hr ( G2 ) accelerate the wound healing better than all groups and moringa leaves extract of concentration of 12.5% accelerate wound healing also relative to the other concentration ..
