Some observations on hypoglycaemic activity of Momordica charantia.

Abstract

Hydrocolloids are interactive dressings that absorb fluids, and when this happens the physical state of the dressing changes to form a gel. Hydrocolloids contain carboxymethyl cellulose and a range of other polymers, which vary between brands. They are suitable for use on necrotic, sloughy, granulating and epithelializing wounds. Health professionals should consult individual manufacturers' instructions before using hydrocolloids on infected wounds.
