Chytoform technology is a formula derived from chitosan, a component derived from the shell of crustaceans that allows greater resistance and absorption of exudate. 

Opticell Ag+ is characterized by:

– Vertical absorption of the fluid with a high retention capacity (29 g – 35 g / 100 cm2).

-High capacity of molding to the wound bed, which allows preserving its shape, size and optimal contact..

– It is antimicrobial.

– Chitosan is a non-toxic, biodegradable and biocompatible polysaccharide.

– It may be left on the wound for up to 7 days.

• Wound management 7.7
