About the product
Biatain Fiber Ag is an antimicrobial* gelling fiber indicated for moderate to highly exuding acute and chronic wounds.
With low shrinkage and high absorption, Biatain Fiber Ag effectively manages exudate by staying in shape and reduces exudate pooling to lower the risk of infection and maceration¹.
When exudate is absorbed, silver is released within the dressing. A surfactant has been added to help the silver access bacteria, for rapid antibacterial performance within 30 minutes of application².
* Coloplast data on file 11/22. Within the dressing. Based on in vitro data, tested against a broad selection of representative clinically relevant microbial species.
¹ Coloplast data on file 2024. Based on bench testing data. The information presented does not indicate antimicrobial effectiveness of the dressing and may not be indicative of clinical performance. Exudate pooling is one of the known risk factors for wound infections, reducing dead space reduces the risk of developing an infection.
²Coloplast data on file 11/22 Based on in vitro data, tested against: Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis.
Product description
Low shrinkage
Biatain Fiber Ag stays in shape to minimize dead space and reduce the risk of infection¹. It forms a strong cohesive gel to allow for easy** one-piece removal³.
High absorption
Biatain Fiber Ag effectively absorbs and retains high volumes of exudate, reducing exudate pooling to lower the risk of infection and maceration.
When exudate is absorbed, silver is released within the dressing. A surfactant has been added to help the silver access bacteria, for rapid antibacterial performance within 30 minutes of application².It offers sustained broad spectrum antimicrobial activity for up to 7 days4.
