GmbH, a Bayreuth, Germany-based medical device manufacturer, are pleased to
announce the CE approval of HaemoCer(TM), an Absorbable Polysaccharide
Hemostat (APH). Introduction of HaemoCer(TM) APH will commence this month in
the European Union and other selected international markets.
HaemoCer(TM) is an absorbable, surgical hemostatic technology created via a Polysacharide Ultra-hydrophilic Resorbable Engineering (PURE) process.
