Bacterial Cellulose Solutions

The Clear Choice for Improved Healing



Why Bacterial Cellulose?

  • No risk of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) transfer from bovine source like collagen
  • Strong and transparent
  • Provides superior wound healing
  • Clinical and measurable advantages
  • Developed and manufactured in the United States
  • Produced from a trust worthy FDA approved, ISO 13485 US based manufacturing facility.
  • Weili Hu, Shiyan Chen Functionalized bacterial cellulose derivatives and nanocomposites. Carbohydrate Polymers 101, 2014, 1043-1060.
    Typical Bacterial Cellulose Growth Process

    Wound Healing

    Bacterial Cellulose maintains proper wound moisture and temperature, protects newly formed cells, facilitates angiogenesis and re-epithelization, alleviates pain, and protects the wound from bacteria and contamination.

    Customizable

    Bacterial Cellulose can be custom designed to meet user/patient needs. Thickness, texture, opacity, and mechanical properties can all be adjusted depending on use conditions.

    Microbial Barrier

    The tightly packed nature of Bacterial Cellulose produces a natural barrier to bacterial penetration providing inherent microbial protection during the critical wound healing process resulting in improved clinical outcomes without the use of pharmaceuticals. In addition the surface structure can be modified to enhance cellular biocompatability.

    How We Are Different than the Rest

    Physicians today require wound dressings with greater diversity of applications, better protection from microbial growth and more therapeutic benefit. Bacterial Cellulose Solutions is the wound dressing manufacturer of the future because its BC is:

  • A bacterial barrier
  • A pain reducer
  • A wound healer (improves re-epithelization & facilitates angiogenesis)
  • Biocompatible
  • Controllable (tunable)
  • Low cost (manufacturing)
  • Strong (High Tensile Strength)
  • Transparent
