Mechanisms of Morbidity and Mortality Following Trauma: Burn.

Abstract

In these studies, the authors have defined Ethyl Linoleate : (a) To be the water-holding principle of intact skin; (b) to be absent in burn eschar in amounts proportional to the pervaporative leak; (c) to function, with appropriate antioxidants, to return evaporative water loss to normal for an indefinite time; (d) to be cheap, readily available commercially, and easy to apply; (e) to normalize metabolic heat production post-burn; and (f) to promote healing in partial thickness burns. The future of the agent in primary care of burns seems promising.
