Product Description

Acticoat* Absorbent Dressing consists of a silver-coated calcium alginate fabric. The sustained-release of broad-spectrum ionic silver activity protects the dressing from bacterial contamination, while the alginate absorbs excess wound fluid to form a gel that maintains a moist environment for optimal wound healing. The nanocrystalline coating of pure silver delivers antimicrobial barrier activity within 30 minutes - faster than other forms of silver. NUCRYST Pharmaceutical's antimicrobial technology is able to produce silver-coated polyethylene films that can release an effective concentration of silver over several days. Thus, as silver ions are consumed, additional silver is released from the dressing to provide an effective antimicrobial barrier.
