Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is a flowering plant whose long, fine fibers, leaves and seeds have been used for centuries. Its fibers are applied in wound dressings to promote healing, while extracts from the leaves and seeds are employed as insect repellents and antimicrobial agents. Raw cotton seeds contain gossypol, a toxic compound, so they should not be consumed without proper processing and the fibers are best used only for topical application.
