Mechanism of Action |
Absorbable hemostat upon contact with blood, transforms into a sticky, translucent gel that slows further diffusion of liquid molecules. It is fully bio-compatible and is broken down and completely absorbed by the body at rates that depend on the amount placed and the availability of fluid in the area where it has been applied. |

When used properly in minimal amounts, Hemolus™ is absorbed from the sites of implantation with practically no tissue reaction. |
