In a study published in Advanced Materials, a research team developed an innovative bacterial cellulose (BC)-based hemostatic dressing that enables rapid and sustained bleeding control.

Developed by scientists at Switzerland's Empa research institute, the experimental dressing takes the form of a thin membrane made mainly of plant-derived cellulose fibers.

Gentell has plants in the U.S., Canada, Brazil, Paraguay, England, China, and New Zealand and expects to sell around $300 ...
