Burning injuries are among physical and chemical destructive phenomena which sometimes cause death . Anti bacterial effects of olive oil and lime water has been proved previously. Olive oil and lime water are used to treat burning injuries in Iran by traditional practitioners . The aim of this study was a microscopic survey on the healing effects of olive oil and lime water on second degree burning injuries in rat .
Material & In this study, 36 Wistar rats were used. After the production of a second degree burning injury, the rats were randomly divided into three groups. The first group were treated with the combination of olive oil and lime water, the second group were treated with silver sulfadiazine 1% and the third group received normal saline. Untill the end of the 4th week 3 of the rats were killed each week and tissue specimens were taken from them. Afterwards microscopic slides were made of them. The slides were studied qualitatively using a light microscope. The number of blood vessels were counted in the surface unit too.
Findings: The number of blood vessels enhanced with the time. This enhancement is more in the group of olive oil and lime water. With the maturity of the wounds the number of the vessels reduced. Qualitative study showed that olive oil and lime water treat the injuries faster and vascularization, granulation tissue growth and maturity and epithelialization were faster in this group.
Discussion & Olive oil and lime water can be used as a cheap treatment for second burning injuries.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the histological and histochemical alterations of accessory sex glands in condition of unilateral cryptorchidism. Three adult healthy donkeys and three adult donkeys with unilateral cryptorchidism were selected and euthanized. Accessory sex glands were separated and were prepared for biometric studies. Microscopic studies were done on formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissue samples stained by Hematoxylin & Eosin (H&E) and Periodic acid Schiff (PAS) methods. Histochemical detection of lipid profiles was evaluated on frozen sections of tissue samples by Oil Red O and Sudan Black B methods. Histological alterations of the ampulla of ductus deference in animals with unilateral cryptorchidism were seen as trabecular thickness decrement, reduction of trabecular branch, decrease in secretory cells height and increase in glandular lumen diameter. In these animals, some structural changes were seen in prostate gland as mucosal folds height reduction and in bulbourethral gland as slight decrement in secretory alveoles and increment of trabecular thickness. Cellular alterations were not seen in comparison with control group. There was no indication of lipid droplets in histochemical studies in the experimental groups. The results showed that unilateral cryptorchidism leads to slight reduction in the functions of accessory sex glands, especially in intrainguinal ampulla of ductus deference.

One of the main causes of death from burns is severe infections due to bacterial colony growth and consequative septicemia. Antibacterial effects of olive and lime water has been shown in some researches.This study aimed to assess the efficiency of combination therapy of burn wounds with olive oil and lime water in rats.
In this experimental study, 30 Wistar rats were used. After the production of a second degree burn with 2 cm diameter, the rats were divided randomly into three groups. The first group treated with the combination of olive oil and lime water, the second group treated with silver sulfadiazine 1%and the third group received normal saline. The healing time was recorded in all three groups and the results were analysized using analysis of repeated measures test.
The average of wound healing in the first, the second and the third group were 66.32±3.36, 64.86±3.77 and 49.27± 4.16 accordingly.The use of the analysis of repeated measures shows a significant different between the first and the second group compare with the third group (P The use of olive oil and lime water mixture caused acceleration in the healing of burn injury. Histopathological studies are recommended to further investigate the effects of this compound on the wound.
