Application


  • Strychnos pseudoquina modulates the morphological reorganization of the scar tissue of second intention cutaneous wounds in rats.: This study examines the use of Vaseline in combination with Strychnos pseudoquina to enhance scar tissue healing and reorganization in cutaneous wounds. The findings highlight the biochemical pathways involved in wound healing and the potential therapeutic applications of Vaseline in dermatological treatments (Sarandy et al., 2018).

  • Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi (Aroeira) leaves oil attenuates inflammatory responses in cutaneous wound healing in mice.: The application of Vaseline as a base for delivering Aroeira leaves oil demonstrates significant anti-inflammatory effects in cutaneous wound healing. This research underscores the biochemical mechanisms through which Vaseline enhances the therapeutic properties of herbal extracts in wound care (Estevao et al., 2017).

  • Liquid Crystal Formation from Sunflower Oil: Long Term Stability Studies.: The study explores the formulation of stable liquid crystals from sunflower oil using Vaseline as a stabilizing agent. The findings highlight the molecular interactions and long-term stability of such formulations, emphasizing their potential applications in biochemistry and material science (da Rocha-Filho et al., 2016).
