Systagenix Silvercel 900404 Alginate Dressing Box of 10

SILVERCEL Non-Adherent Antimicrobial Alginate Dressing with Silver provides an antimicrobial barrier for up to seven days. The amount of time between dressing changes is dependent on wound exudate levels. Silvercel non-adherent dressing features a non-woven pad made with a combination of alginate, carboxymethylcellulose, and nylon fibers that are coated in silver. The alginate part of the dressing helps manage the exudate. Meanwhile, the silver coating on the nylon fibers acts as an antimicrobial agent to reduce the risk of infection.

• Embedded silver particles kill bacteria and fungi, while a highly porous.
• activated charcoal layer binds toxins and odor-causing molecules.
• Exudate is allowed to flow freely through to a secondary absorbent dressing; the outer nylon sleeve facilitates removal with minimal adherence to the wound.
