Bactigras Sterile Gauze Dressings - 5cm x 5cm

Bactigras is soothing and low-adherent and allows the wound to drain freely into an absorbent secondary dressing. Bactigras is a sterile paraffin Tulle Gras dressing made from open weave gauze. The gauze has interlocking threads which minimise fraying when the dressing is cut to shape.

Bactigras contains chlorhexidine which is an active agent against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including MRSA. The dressing is suitable for covering wounds such as minor burns, lacerations, abrasions, graft sites and leg ulcers.
