ZeniCOL Ag Collagen Dressing with Silver is an advanced wound care dressing designed to support effective healing in a wide range of wound types. Made from animal-derived collagen, sodium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and silver chloride, this sterile dressing transforms into a soft gel upon contact with wound exudate. This gel maintains a moist wound environment that promotes the formation of granulation tissue and epithelialization while helping control excess moisture and preventing infection. The added silver chloride provides antimicrobial protection, preventing bacterial colonization within the dressing for cleaner, safer healing.

Features & Benefits:

• Promotes Moist Wound Healing: Forms a soft gel when in contact with wound exudate, helping maintain the ideal moisture balance for optimal healing.
• Antimicrobial Silver Protection: Silver chloride helps reduce bacterial colonization, protecting the wound site from potential infection.
• Supports Natural Healing: Encourages granulation tissue formation and epithelialization, aiding in the wound's natural recovery process.
• Inhibits MMP Activity: Contains EDTA, which helps remove zinc ions and inhibit the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that can delay healing.
• Highly Absorbent & Conformable: Soft and flexible material conforms comfortably to wound contours and absorbs moderate drainage effectively.
• Easy Application: Simple to apply and remove, minimizing trauma during dressing changes.
• Primary Use: Used as a primary dressing for a wide range of wounds requiring advanced moisture management.
