Silver is an antimicrobial that has stood the test of time.

Silver cell wound dressing.

Silvercel dressing long lasting antimicrobial protection silvercel dressing is a sterile non woven pad composed of a high g guluronic acid alginate carboxymethylcellulose cmc and silver coated nylon fibers. Silvercel non adherent antimicrobial alginate wound dressing features. Decrease of matrix metalloproteinase mmp activity. Silvercel dressing has been proven to be a suitable dressing for the management of chronic wounds.

Cover with a non occlusive secondary dressing. Acticoat is a wound dressing containing layers of silver coated gauze. The barrier functions of the dressing may help reduce infection in moderate to heavily exuding partial and full thickness wounds including.
