 ABSTRACT

A wound is a break in the continuity of the skin. As the skin's continuity is disrupted, the body's internal organs are visible. This is a precarious condition that could result in death. The wound healing process begins with the skin's immediate reaction after a wound. The whole procedure starts by itself. This process can be aided in many ways, including keeping the wound clean of bacterial infection and moisture and dust. A variety of agents are added therapeutically to the wound site for this purpose. All of them are zinc oxide. It has a lot of wound-healing effects. It reduces the number of bacteria at the wound site, especially Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. All of these bacteria infiltrate the wound site and is a leading cause of wound healing delays, among many others. It is hypothesised that by converting zinc oxide into nanoparticles, wound healing efficacy would be enhanced. Because of their small scale, nanoparticles have greater penetration capacity.

Keywords: Honey, Zinc Oxide, nanoparticles, Wounds Healing.
