Rats were randomly divided into 5 groups. The treatment consists of untreated burns, burnazin treatment and treatment using 3%, 6% and 12% concentration of okra extract. Macroscopic lesion observed everyday until day 10. White rats were injured with deep partial thickness burn in dorsal region of rat body, and then treated until day 10. The formation of scab and granulation tissue on the wound were observed and documented.
