Reoxcel Powder absorbable powder hemostat is a sterile hemostatic (hemostatic) preparation made of oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) (polyanhydride glucuronic acid) in powder form in an applicator for dispensing into the bleeding area. Produced in powder form, Reoxcel Powder absorbable hemostat does not contain any animal-based or collagen additives. It has durable structure and should be stored at controlled room temperature. This powder hemostat has light yellow colour and has slight caramel-like odour. A slight colour change may occur over time, but this does not affect the performance of the Reoxcel Powder absorbable powder hemostat. Reoxcel Powder absorbable powder hemostat, which is introduced to the market with its 3 gram sterile applicator, provides ease of use in application to the bleeding tissue during the intervention.

The impact mechanism of Reoxcel Powder absorbable powder hemostat is independent of the body’s own coagulation mechanism. Reoxcel Powder absorbable powder hemostat forms a brownish or black gelatinous mass when it comes in contact with blood which aids clot formation. This gelatine-like mass acts as a physical structure for the blood platelet. Coagulation happens with blood platelet accumulation and platelet-fibrine plaque formation and the bleeding is stopped. When used in minimum amounts and appropriately, Reoxcel Powder absorbable powder hemostat is absorbed without tissue reaction at the implantation sites and provides versatile compatibility. Absorption depends on tissue type, amount of hemostat used and blood satiety level. Reoxcel Sigma Knit hemostatic agent has bactericidal effect against 40 types of Gr(+) (gram positive) and Gr(-) (gram negative) microorganisms.
