On contact with wound exudate, the hydrocolloid matrix forms a cohesive gel which supports moist wound healing. |
Now he's devoting himself, almost exclusively, to just one hydrocolloid, and it's been around for ages: masa. |
Treatment with moisture-retentive dressings consisted of either a hydrocolloid, an alginate, or sterile gauze. |
A hydrocolloid is a suspension of particles in water where the particles are molecules that bind to water and to one another. |
Honeycomb matrix of hydrocolloid particles absorbs exudate to form a soft, moist gel. |
This absorptive layer is made of material other than an alginate, foam, hydrocolloid, or hydrogel. |
