MERIZELLE
Absorbable Haemostat
What is MERIZELLE?
MERIZELLETM Absorbable Haemostat is a sterile absorbable knitted fabric prepared by the controlled oxidation of regenerated cellulose. MerizelleTM Absorbable Haemostats contains (95 – 100%) oxygenated regenerated cellulose and water (0-5 %). It is white to pale yellow in colour and has a faint, caramel-like aroma. A slight discoloration may occur with age, but this does not affect performance. Three different types of MERIZELLETM absorbable haemostat are available. Merizelle™ Absorbable Haemostats are available with three different knitting patterns.
