PENA-JIMENEZ, Francisco et al. Use of ozonized oils for the treatment of wounds in fattening bovine. Abanico vet [online]. 2017, vol.7, n.2, pp.60-67. ISSN 2448-6132. https://doi.org/10.21929/abavet2017.72.5.
The closure of cutaneous wounds is a complex system of tissues organization that includes hemorrhage, inflammation, re-epithelialization, the formation of granulation tissue and the final stages of repair and remodeling. Today, it is practical and cost-effective to use O3 in combination with vegetable oil like olive oil to obtain ozonized oils. Ozonized oils have been used topically for the treatment of chronic wounds. However, exist few investigations related to the therapeutic effects on acute healing. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of ozonated oils in the healing of skin wounds in fattening bovines. Ten bovines were submitted to three circular surgical incisions in the neck table, which were treated daily with ozonated olive oil (T1) and commercial ozonized oil (Oleozon®) (T2). One surgical incision was used as negative control. The effect of daily cicatrization was evaluated, finding that the bovine treated with ozonated olive oils had a lower production of scab. Also, the wounds were humid and with a little retraction of the epidermis in comparison with the negative controls. Concluding that ozonized olive oil accelerates the healing process in fattening bovines.
