  • Abstract:
  • Annona squamosa, commonly referred to as custard apple, has a variety of therapeutic uses. Toxins can be eliminated from the human body by using Annona squamosa. The leaves are used as medicine to cure skin conditions like boils, bug bites, and malignant tumors. Crushed leaves are used to wounds and illnesses, and their scent is used to ease weariness and restlessness. The custard apple, or Annona squamosa L., is a significant tropical fruit that is grown in the West Indies, South and Central America, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, India, Mexico, the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Egypt. It is a member of the Annonaceae family. The health advantages of custard apple plant leaves, which are ascribed to a significant variety of phytochemicals, have been investigated. Due to the tannins and vitamin C found in A. squamosa leaves, which have anti-inflammatory and insecticidal properties, the Indian custard apple is believed to aid in wound healing. Hydrogel formulations' capacity to cure wounds was assessed using a number of metrics, including tensile strength and wound contraction. The outcome shows the decrease in wound area for each group over the course of the fourth, twelve, and sixteenth days. When animals were given H2 and H3 formulations, it was seen that wounds healed. The percentage of wound contractions at day 20 was 80.5% and 83.9%, respectively.
