High Quality silver alginate dressing

Product performance

Silver Alginate Dressing is a kind of wound excipient, In the presence of wound exudate, the sodium ions from the exudate take the place of the silver ions, releasing the silver ions.  As wound exudate is absorbed, the alginate forms a gel, which assists in maintaining a moist environment for optimal wound healing, and allows intact removal.  The Alginate Ag Silver Dressing released in the presence of wound fluid protect the dressing from bacterial colonization, and provides an effective barrier to bacterial penetration.

Alginate Dressing is a type of fibrous dressing made of 100% polymer material (alginate).This alginate dressing is medical dressing with high absorption property.The silver-impregnated calcium alginate fibres, when in contact with wound exudate or blood, form a gel which creates a moist wound healing environment. The silver in the wound dressing has an antimicrobial effect upon various types of microorganisms including Staphylococcus Aureus and Escherichia Coli. Calcium Alginate Dressings with Antimicrobial Silver are sterilized and must not be re-sterilized. The products are sterile unless the package is opened or damaged.Silver Alginate Dressing White Color
