Antimicrobial assays of three native British plants used in Anglo-Saxon medicine for wound healing formulations in 10th century England.

Researchers analyzed extracts from three native British plants to determine their ability to fight bacterial infections and wounds. The plants were chosen from herbal formulations found in three Anglo-Saxon medical texts dating back to the 10th century. The study highlights the potential of these historical remedies, with over 250 plant species yet to be evaluated for their medicinal properties.
