Calcium alginate dressings are made from seaweed. Calcium alginate dressings form a natural gel of the exudates against the healing tissue that keeps it moist and supple, aiding in healing and tissue growth. In addition, this gel material forms a natural barrier to bacteria that may complicate healing with secondary infections of the wound. Alginates are the reference of dressing after sinus pilonidal excision.
DACC (dialkylcarbamoyle chloride) is a main component of the bacterial binding wound dressing: Sorbact. DACC is a hydrophobic fatty acid derivative that can be used to coat dressing materials, resulting in a dressing with highly hydrophobic pathogen binding properties. This is a primary wound interface dressing and is effective when in close contact with the wound bed in a moist environment.
