Wound healing property of curcain, the protease isolated from the latex of Jalropha curcas Linn was determined in mice. Two ointments of curcain were prepared by incorporating 0.5% and 1.0% (w/w) of curcain powder into the washable ointment base. Healing of the wound by the curcain ointments was found to be better than nitrofurazone ointment and propamidine isethionate cream in mice.
