Comparison of ORC properties. Treatment materials with 22 mm diameter. In all experiments gauze served as non-oxidized, non-absorbable control. Gauze and Equicel® contain frayed organized fibers, which are arranged in a square network structure. Equicel® is an ORC based on natural cotton and contains collagen and fibrin. Equitamp® and Tabotamp® have a woven mesh structure. The viscose-based mesh of Equitamp® has a higher density compared to Tabotamp®. Bar = 3 mm (A). Samples were wetted with DMEM to compare the dissolution and absorbability. Bar = 5 mm (B). The pH values of increasing amounts of gauze or ORC per milliliter supplemented DMEM. The graph shows the mean and SEM of three independent analyses. The significance was tested to the same amount of gauze (* p < 0.001) (C).
