DG Derm Wound Cleansing Solution
Due to its strong antimicrobial properties and biofilm removal ability, DG Derm wound cleansing solution is used to clean, moisturize, and disinfect all types of acute or chronic wounds, especially wounds with slough and necrosis, to effectively remove these barriers and provide favorable conditions for debridement and wound healing.
Antimicrobial Wound Cleansing Solution
DG Derm antimicrobial wound cleansing Solution, with a special formulation based on powerful antimicrobial compounds such as polyhexanide (PHMB) and betaine surfactant, has strong effectiveness on a variety of microorganisms, including common and treatment-resistant types such as MRSA, VRE, as well as biofilm, and thereby prevents the occurrence or increase the wound infection.
Recent global studies on antimicrobial compounds have highlighted polyhexanide (PHMB) as a leading choice for wound care products, particularly for preventing and treating infections caused by a wide range of wound microbes, including treatment-resistant bacteria. Its superior efficacy compared to other antimicrobial agents has established PHMB as a top priority in wound management. This recognition aligns with the global trend of prioritizing PHMB-containing products for their proven antimicrobial effectiveness.
PHMB and the approach to dealing with microorganisms
PHMB is a linear polymer consisting of cationic biguanide groups attached to hexamethylene chains, with a structure similar to antimicrobial peptides, which has strong effectiveness and a broad spectrum of applications against a variety of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, antibiotic-resistant bacteria, viruses, fungi, and yeasts.
Due to its biocompatibility and special chemical and electrostatic properties, polyhexanide is an ideal compound, without causing any damage to cells, and is very effective in the wound infections’ treatment and prevention. This substance changes the structure and ultimately destroys the microbial cell by binding to the cell membrane of the microorganism and disrupting its functional metabolism.
Betaine and the approach to dealing with biofilm
Betaine is an amphoteric, non-sulfated surfactant known for its effectiveness, mildness, and biocompatibility. It works by reducing surface tension, allowing it to penetrate, break up, and remove biofilm without causing damage to healthy tissue. The surfactant properties of betaine enable it to bind to biofilm through its hydrophobic tail, breaking it apart and destroying its structure. Simultaneously, its hydrophilic head helps suspend and remove contaminants, ensuring thorough cleansing. Additionally, betaine’s presence at the wound site inhibits the formation of new biofilm, promoting a cleaner and more conducive environment for healing.
The combination of betaine and polyhexanide, with its synergistic effect, multiplies the cleaning power of the DG Derm wound cleansing solution. This occurs due to betaine’s ability to reduce surface tension, which enhances polyhexanide penetration and accelerates its antimicrobial action.
75 and 250 ml spray of DG Derm cleansing solution
It effectively helps to heal wounds faster by cleaning and moisturizing superficial wounds and burns. It can also play an important role in changing dried or clotted dressings without pain and secondary damage. Since this product covers a large area by spraying the solution without hand intervention, it can reduce the risk of infection and provide optimal conditions for wound healing. DG Derm spray can be used for up to 12 months after opening.
300ml DG Derm Antimicrobial Cleansing Solution
The DG Derm 300ml cleansing bottle with a nozzle is used to clean all types of wounds, especially covered wounds, slough, and necrosis, to effectively remove these barriers and provide optimal conditions for debridement and wound healing.
Since dressings often adhere to wound surfaces due to their characteristics, attempt to remove the dressing on dry form the wound surface, it can cause new damage, which increases the infection risk and slows down the healing process; where the dressing is difficult to remove, wetting it with DG Derm Antimicrobial cleansing Solution can facilitate its separation from the wound surface. It can also be used to clean wounds by wetting sterile gauze or pads, thereby performing effective debridement.
This product can be used for up to 8 weeks after opening.
DG Derm cleansing solutions can be used by applying them directly to the wound bed or by moistening sterile gauze or pads, which ultimately allows for easy and painless dressing changes and facilitates wound cleansing without secondary damage.
In addition to their antimicrobial properties and wound cleansing from infection and biofilm, these products play an effective role in the debridement process and wound bed preparation by moisturizing and regulating pH.
DG Derm Cleansing Solution Usage
DG Derm Wound Cleansing Solution is designed to cleanse, moisturize, decontaminate, and help prevent infection in various acute and chronic wounds, including the following:
Venous wounds, types of burns, trauma wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, medical catheter insertion sites, cuts and abrasions, wounds resulting from radiotherapy, bedsores, post-surgical wounds, ostomy sites, and wounds resulting from contact with chemicals such as acids and bases.
Ingredients
Purified water, polyhexanide, betaine
Investigating the biofilm inhibition and eradication capability of DG Derm cleansing solution
The biofilm inhibition and eradication power of DG Derm cleansing solution was tested by a reference laboratory based on the international standard ASTM E2799-17 and the national standard 16684, and the results showed that this product has an extraordinary ability to inhibit and destroy biofilm. Based on these results, it can be said that these products have a strong inhibitory effect on the initial adhesion, formation and growth of biofilm.
Understanding the Product’s Impact on Biofilm Formation and Removal
Evaluating the Efficiency of DG Derm Cleansing Solution
Laboratory studies have confirmed that DG Derm Antimicrobial Wound Cleansing Solution acts rapidly, eliminating 100% of resistant microorganisms within one hour of application. This fast-acting formula makes it a highly effective antimicrobial solution.
Beyond its immediate action, DG Derm forms a thin protective layer of antimicrobial agents at the wound site, ensuring prolonged antimicrobial effects. The effectiveness speed is attributed to polyhexanide, a potent antimicrobial agent. Compared to solutions containing silver and other antimicrobial substances, polyhexanide delivers superior performance, significantly reducing treatment duration and overall costs.

How to use DG Derm wound cleansing solution
Clean the wound and the surrounding skin with DG Derm Wound Cleansing Solution, then gently dry the wound area. If using the 75 ml or 250 ml DG Derm spray, hold the bottle 15 cm away from the wound and spray the solution evenly. When using the 300 ml bottle, squeeze it to release a steady stream of solution with controlled pressure directly onto the wound.
