Abstract
A composition comprising either fructose or ribose, starch hydrolysate and a film forming agent other than starch hydrolysate is described. The composition, characterized by a weight ratio of fructose or ribose to starch hydrolysate in the range of between about 1:99 and about 15:85, is employed in a method of treating wounds in a host in need of such treatment. In this method a therapeutically effective amount of the composition contacts the wound for a period of time sufficient to initiate wound healing.
