Latex-free, sterile, silver-containing calcium alginate dressing composed of soft, alginate textile fibers, CMC (carboxymethylcellulose) and ionic silver complex (silver carbonate). Release silver ions in the presence of wound fluid and protect dressing from microorganisms. As wound fluid absorbs into the dressing, it forms a soft, non-adhering gel to help promote the healing process while maintaining a moist environment for optimal wound management.
