| AG Silver Calcium Alginate Medical Wound Dressing, Surgical Dressing for Wound Care |
Roosin Silver Calcium Alginate Dressing(Prescription) / Roosin Alginate Dressing with Preservative(OTC)is a sterile, non-woven pad composed of a high G (guluronic acid) calcium alginate and metallic silver particles, which absorbs wound exudate and releases silver in the presence of wound fluid. 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 material consists of metallic silver that provides effective protection of the dressing against microbial contamination. The silver protects the dressing from a broad spectrum of bacteria over five days, and should be changed daily for antibacterial use, based on in vitro laboratory testing. Odour reduction results from the antibacterial effect in the dressing.
