Chemical Wound Debridement Gel PIN

Disruption of the biofilm and remove the infection in chronic wounds in up to 60 seconds. By withdrawing water-molecules from the biofilm, the desiccant gel rapidly disrupts the biofilm, pathogens and inflammatory proteins in the wound, aiming to turn chronic wounds into acute wounds. This is an acidic gel that is applied directly on the wound bed for up to 60 seconds. It is rinsed off with sterile or saline water, after which the natural wound healing process will start.
