Regenerative activity of 2-(1'-hydroxy-4'-isopropenyl-1'-methylcyclohexyl-2'-thio) methyl ethanoate gel.

We studied regenerative activity of a sulfur-containing menthane terpenoid (2-(1'-hydroxy-4'-isopropenyl-1'-methylcyclohexyl-2'-thio) methyl ethanoate) in the form of gels with different concentrations in experimental superficial non-penetrating corneal wound. The examined compound significantly increased the regenerative activity by accelerating the onset and completion of epithelialization. The use of 2% and 3% gel ensured finer scarring.
