The Mediflex Absorbent Cotton Gauze Bandage is produced from 100 %, first grade cotton yarn. Both sides are woven by weaving machines so there are no loose threads. When used in open injuries in sterilized condi­tions, the Mediflex Absorbent Cotton Gauze Bandage minimizes the risk of infection. The Mediflex Absorbent Cotton Gauze Bandage is hydrophile ( absorbent ) so it is highly absorbtive in case of bleeding.
