maggot therapy mechanisms of action Medicinal maggots have at least two confirmed beneficial effects on wounds that can be supported by laboratory investigations. They are debridement‚ or elimination of necrotic tissue‚ and removal of pathogenic bacteria. There is moreover‚ evidence from recent studies that they may also accelerate wound healing by promoting the formation of granulation tissue as suggested by the early literature‚ Wound debridement activity Necrophagous larvae feed on the dead

Many bacteria overtime become resistant to the antibiotic and multiply. For example‚ pseudomonas putida KT2440 is a chloramphenicol-resistant bacterium that is able to grow in the presence of this antibiotic at a concentration of up to 25ml. 3.
