Meril Merizelle Standard Hemostat

MERIZELLE™ Absorbable Hemostat is a sterile absorbable
knitted fabric prepared by the controlled oxidation of regenerated
cellulose. MERIZELLE™ Absorbable Hemostats contains (95 –
100%) oxygenated regenerated cellulose and water (0-5 %). It is white to
pale yellow in colour and has a faint, caramel-like aroma. A slight
discoloration may occur with age, but this does not affect performance.

available. Merizelle™ Absorbable Hemostats are available with three
different knitting patterns. MERIZELLE™ meets all the requirements for
Oxidized regenerated cellulose established by United States Pharmacopeia
