Introduction: Burning is an injury that alters the integrity of the skin, due to thermal trauma. Among the non-conventional compounds used in wound healing are norbixin and silver preparations. Objective: to evaluate the cicatrizing action of silver nanoparticle associated with norbixina in Mus musculus burns. Methods: Initially, a nanoprata / norbixin solution was prepared and from this solution the test gel was obtained. Afterwards the animals were divided into 3 groups, being negative (without treatment), positive (silver sulfadiazine) and test (gel test). In these animals, there was the induction of burns. On the 7th and 14th day, euthanasia was performed and the injured tissues were collected for microscopic analysis. Result: There was a potential advantage of the test group in relation to negative and equality compared to positive. Conclusion: The silver nanoparticle associated with norbixin represents an alternative source for the healing of burns.Downloads
