Key Features of Mesitran Border Dressings
Description
Mesitran consists of a hydrogel sheet approximately 1mm thick attached to a semi polyurethane membrane by means of a thin fibrous bonding layer. The hydrogel, which is capable of absorbing seven times its own weight of wound fluid, contains 30% of medical grade honey. The osmotic properties of the honey are such that they impart antimicrobial properties to the dressing. The highly conformable polyurethane film backing layer acts as bacterial barrier and the hydrogel layer feels cool to the touch which makes the dressing well suited for the treatment of superficial burns.
