Mechanisms of Maggot‐Induced Wound Healing: What Do We Know, and Where Do We Go from Here?
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Medicinal maggots are believed to have three major mechanisms of action on wounds, brought about chemically and through physical contact: debridement (cleaning of debris), disinfection, and hastened wound healing. Until recently, most of the evidence for these claims was anecdotal; but the past 25 years have seen an increase in the use and study of ...
