This makes INTRASITE Gel ideal for every stage in the wound management process.Partially hydrated hydrogel formulationContains propylene glycolAPPLIPAK containerBenefitsINTRASITE Gel's partially hydrated formulation allows the gel to donate moisture to drier environments and absorb in wetter environments, creating a moist wound management environment.INTRASITE Gel rehydrates necrotic tissue and, by its gentle yet effective action, aids debridement.INTRASITE Gel absorbs slough and exudate without damaging fragile granulation tissue.INTRASITE Gel increases moisture content at the wound surface, helping prevent eschar formation.
