VVL-liposomal gel was stable with significant drug entrapment efficiency reaching 88% ± 3, zeta potential value ranging from -50 to -63, and a size range of 50-200 μm nm in diameter. The evaluation proved the ability of VVL-liposomal gel to gradually release the drugs in a sustained manner with greater complete wound healing effect and tissue repair after 7 days of administration, with a significant decrease in bacterial count compared with the crude extract.
