Wound contact layer dressing has been proven successful as a non-medicated treatment of colonized and infected wounds with microbe binding action. Instead of using chemically active agents, it employs a surprisingly simple physical principle to effectively bind and inactivate pathogenic bacteria and fungi. With every dressing change, the reduced bacterial load helps to create optimum conditions for the natural wound healing process.
