Animus Membra Wound Sealant

Indications

Introducing our new hydrogel wound sealant Membra™ which offers a new way to manage open wounds and protect suture sites in a wide range of species.
Membra™ is a novel, transparent, non-toxic, biodegradable hydrogel membrane that is applied to the patient in a liquid form that sets to a ‘solid’ flexible gel that provides up to 14 days wound coverage.
Its unique presentation not only creates a water resistant membrane over the wound that is non-cytotoxic and helps to maintain an optimal moist environment for healing. Because Membra™ requires no secondary dressing or bandage it can avoid the costs associated with repeated dressing changes . This offers clinicians a solution for patients that are difficult to bandage, where the cost of bandaging and repeat visits are of a concern for clients, or for patients that would be stressed by regular handling such as nervous pets, wildlife and exotic species

• To be stored in the fridge. Take out of fridge 30 mins prior to use.
  
  
• Product should be at room temperature for application.

Once Membra has been applied and has dried it forms a transparent barrier over the wound. It will allow moisture out and for the first few days after application there may be some “discharge” over the area. Within a few days the wound will dry out and there will be a noticeable change to the wound.
