Topical antimicrobials such as silver and iodine can demonstrate non specific damage to
human cells. In vivo clinical data has demonstrated that Flaminal® is non-cytotoxic to those
cells involved in wound healing, such as keratinocytes and fibroblasts. Keratinocytes are key
cells involved in wound healing and migrate from the wound edges to cover the wound, thus
reducing the surface area of the wound. Fibroblasts help form granulation tissue, which
results in a decreased wound volume.
In addition, Flaminal® is active against a range of Gram negative bacilli, Gram positive cocci
yeasts and fungi.
