Abstract:
Biopolymeric membrane is made on the polysaccharide of natural origin according to our own technological process. It is a high bioactive, biocompatible, biodegradable polymeric membrane with effective action for treating wound healing. The preliminary results of clinical study suggested that the membrane were effectively used as biologic dressings for the treatment of donor sites of skin graft, partial thickness burns and granulation tissue. The wound surface after healing was smooth and flexible. The biopolymeric membrane is not only suitable for the treatment of burn wounds, but also it can applied for the skin surgery with excellent results.
