MCG increased macrophage infiltration at wound-site. Wound inflammatory cells were harvested from MCG treated PVA sponges on day 3 (A,B) and day 7 (C,D) post-implantation from C57BL/6 mice. (A,C) The cells were immunostained with F4/80 and subjected to flow cytometry analysis. (B,D) F4/80+ cells were quantified from the gated cell populations at both time points. Data are mean ± SEM (n = 3); *p < 0.05 compared to cells harvested from untreated PVA sponges.
