Objective.

To evaluate effect of «Haemoblock»TM preparation on in vitro bacterial colonization.

Materials and Methods.

Results.

This product at concentration of 0.062% and above inhibited bacterial growth and reduced biofilm mass and bacterial cell viability. In addition, the short-term exposure of the mesh implant to the tested product resulted in inhibition of the abiotic surface contamination.

Conclusions.

«Haemoblock»TM product allows not only to ensure hemostasis in open and laparoscopic surgery, but also to reduce the bacterial cell count in the surrounding tissues in the intra- and post-operative periods.
