| | Product Description | |
| INSTAT Collagen Absorbable Hemostat is a purified and lyophilized bovine dermal collagen. The material, prepared as a sponge-like pad, is lightly cross-linked, sterile, non-pyrogenic, and absorbable. Hemostatic activity, which is an inherent property of collagen, is largely dependent on the basic helical structure of this protein. The helical structure of native collagen is preserved during the manufacture of INSTAT Hemostat. When collagen comes into contact with blood, platelets aggregate on the collagen and release coagulation factors which, together with plasma factors result in the formation of fibrin, and finally in the formation of a clot. | |
