Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease affecting millions worldwide, with approximately 340 million diagnosed cases. A significant complication is impaired wound healing, affecting nearly 25% of diabetic patients. Conventional treatments, including medications, dressings, and surgeries, are costly and may cause side effects. As a result, natural alternatives such as flavonoids are gaining interest for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. Kenaf, a plant rich in flavonoids, has potential therapeutic benefits for diabetic wound healing. This study aimed to extract and enrich flavonoids from kenaf and evaluate their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties using both non-diabetic and diabetic adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) models.
