Hypro-Sorb® F is a rigid, bilayer membrane made of 99.9% pure, crystalline Atelo-Collagen Type I, which is derived from the bovine Achilles tendon. Hypro-Sorb® F is 0.2 mm thick with high tensile and bending strength due to densely packed collagen fibers. Therefore, it is recommended to soak the membrane with saline or the patient’s blood for at least 1 minute before application to facilitate handling.

The resorption process occurs in two phases. During the first six to eight weeks,
Hypro-Sorb® F stays intact. The resorption of the membrane starts afterwards. The membrane is completely resorbed within six months.

PROPERTIES AND ADVANTAGES

• 0.2 mm rigid, bilayer membrane
• pure, crystalline Atelo-Collagen Type I, free of immunogenic telopeptides
• highest degree of tissue biocompatibility
• highest safety with excellent wound healing characteristics
• quick adaptation to the defect due to it is potent hydrophilic properties
• reduced risk of dehiscence formation due to the texture and mild bacteriostatic effect of Atelo-Collagen
• long barrier function of circa 16 weeks, complete resorption after 6 months
• rough and smooth sides are clearly distinguishable
• sterile and safe for five years after production
