On contact with wound exudates hydrocolloid particles gels and interact with the vaseline component of the tulle to form a lipido-colloid contact interface that creates conditions favourable to the scar process
In addition, Urgotul Ag gradually releases silver ions on contact with exudates
These silver ions contained in the lipido-colloidecreed interface give the product an antibacterial contact activity capable of reducing the local bacterial charge of wounds at risk of infection
WHY SILVER CALCIUM ALGINATE? Silver Calcium is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that helps prevent infection of wounds while providing optimum environment to facilitate healing. The alginate produces a hydrophilic gel when it comes into contact with wound exudate which provides a moist healing environment.
COMFORTABLE USE: Conforms to body contours and provides maximum patient comfort. Does not stick to the wound to prevent secondary damage and can be cut to size for those difficult areas.
