Compare Energy Charge Between Wound Treatment TherapiesDay 0, Day 2, Day 7

Energy charge is a calculated ratio of the parameters ATP (µg), ADP (µg), and AMP (µg) which are measured with the same unit.

Energy Charge is calculated as follows:

Energy Charge = (ATP + (0.5 \* ADP)) / (ATP + ADP + AMP)

Where, ATP = Adenosine triphosphate, ADP = Adenosine diphosphate, AMP = Adenosine monophosphate
