Silverleaf Antimicrobial Wound Dressing

The Antimicrobial Wound Dressing from Silverleaf is an electrically activated wound dressing, where proprietary material enables electric current to flow through the wet parts of the fabric.

CMB Antimicrobial Wound Dressing with PROSIT is a single layer dressing consisting of a polyester fabric layer containing biocompatible, proprietary formulas which are held in position on the polyester with a biocompatible binder. The polyester fabric is single ply and is made from multi-filament spun threads woven together. PROSIT activates and generates a voltage at the surface when moistened. When active, PROSIT prevents microbial penetration. Present device can be left on for 3 days. Other indications are currently being applied for.
