Antimicrobial alginate dressing
Melgisorb Ag
Antimicrobial alginate dressing for moderately to heavily exuding wounds
Melgisorb® Ag is an antimicrobial alginate dressing – for when you need an antimicrobial action to reduce bioburden.
An international consensus states that an antimicrobial action is indicated to help reduce bioburden in infected wounds 1 and act as an antimicrobial barrier in wounds at high risk of infection or re-infection 1. Melgisorb Ag has been shown to inactivate wound relevant pathogens (bacteria and fungi) within four hours for up to 14 days, as shown in vitro 2 3.
Melgisorb Ag is able to manage high volumes of exudate. The alginate fibres absorb large amounts of exudate, forming a soft gel – which creates a moist environment and promotes wound healing.
