Wound healing is a complex and intrinsic process that implicates various stages in skin tissue regeneration, may further improvise using secondary metabolites. During a screening of plants traditionally utilized for wound healing, especially by tribals, we encountered Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Oken Plant. Further, we considered the leaf extract of Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam.) Oken in various solvents for In vivo characterization of wound healing. The leaf extracts were prepared in petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, and ethanol and further identified the phytochemicals via advanced analytical techniques. The solvent extracts in the ointment base (1 % and 2 % w/w) were prepared and tested against the acute and burn wound models along with control and positive control (Cipladine 1 %). The ethanolic extract had higher phytochemical constituents was tested against the rat model, was found that 2 % w/w ethanolic ointment base stimulated the wound healing area, hydroxyproline content, and wound index and simultaneously reduced the epithelization period compared to the control. The present study concluded that the Ethanolic extract of Bryophyllum pinnatum leaves loaded ointment further promote the % of wound contraction rate, epithelization, and promotion of angiogenesis, exhibited the potential to be utilized to treat wounds. [Display omitted] • Wound healing is multifactorial process involved various stages in tissue regeneration. • Secondary metabolites from plants effective for faster wound healing. • Extraction and isolation of Bryophyllum pinnatum leaves for wound healing activity. • Identification of Quercetin and Gallic acid via NMR, responsible for wound healing. • 2 % w/w EEBP ointment resulted wound healing at 20th day in burn wound excision model.
