Scientists study if milkfish skin can speed burn healing, reduce infections, and lower costs.

Scientists at Ateneo de Manila University are studying whether milkfish skin can be used to treat severe burns. Milkfish skin, rich in proteins and bioactive compounds, may promote faster healing, reduce infection risk, and ease pain. This could offer a cost-effective, sustainable alternative to current treatments, especially in underserved areas, potentially lowering reliance on imported medical supplies.
