ActCel Hemostatic Gauze is a collagen-like natural substance created from chemically treated cellulose. ActCel Hemostatic Gauze is a non-resorbable clotting agent registered with the FDA to control bleeding from open wounds and body cavities.

ActCel Hemostatic Gauze is hypoallergenic and contains no chemical additives, thrombin or collagen. When non-resorbable hemostatic gauze contacts blood and other bodily fluids it expands three to four times the original size. ActCel Gauze will convert to a gel that self-dissolves into glucose and saline over a one to two week period if not removed. ActCel Hemostatic Gauze may be easily removed from a wound if necessary by simply applying water to the gauze; the dressing will dissolve immediately. ActCel is manufactured from pure, natural materials allowing for an all natural healing process. Despite common appearance, other hemostatic gauzes may be composed of chemicals which inhibit the healing process.

Research proves ActCel effectively reduces clotting time by accelerating the formation of fibrin cross-linkages while increasing blood viscosity. This biological reaction promotes the aggregation of red blood cells acting as a clotting agent. It continues to be a successful stop-bleeding agent in dental, OB/GYN, EMS, Veterinary and Athletic industries. ActCel Hemostatic Gauze offers quick clotting time, chemical free healing, non-resorbable breakdown and sterile as well as bacteriostatic properties. ActCel is also ideal for patients using the prescription blood thinner know as Coumadin.

ActCel Hemostatic Non-Resorbable Gauze is available in three convenient sizes, 2x2, 2x4 and 4x4. The ActCel 2x2 is extremely versatile and well known within the dental industry because of its individually packaged convenience as well as dental-friendly size. ActCel 2x4 Hemostatic Gauze can be applied in any situation from small cuts to dangerous arterial bleeding. To maximize absorption, the 2x4 hemostatic gauze may be folded over to increase layers. The ActCel 2x4 is a widely renowned clotting-agent among EMS, obstetritians, fire departments and athletes. The ActCel 4x4 Hemostatic Gauze is the largest gauze offered by ActCel and is best suited to perform under demanding circumstances such as large lacerations and arterial bleeding.
