Description
By injecting MembraneBlue-Dual® in the vitreous cavity the membrane will be clearly stained and easily distinguished from the underlying, unstained retina and can be removed selectively.
MembraneBlue-Dual® is a stable mix and stains the ILM at the same level as ILM-Blue® and stains the ERM and PVR at a higher level than the classic MembraneBlue.
Due to an integrated carrier 4% PEG solution, MembraneBlue-Dual® can be injected in a BSS filled eye and sinks immediately as a cohesive ball to the fundus of the eye and only stains the targeted tissue without diffusion throughout the whole globe.
Effective ILM & ERM staining due to high purification – minimum 97% purity
MEMBRANEBLUE-DUAL®: Dye for staining ILM, ERM & PVR membranes consists of:
Combination of TrypanBlue 0,15% + BBG 0,025% + 4% PEG
Highly purified TB + BBG – minimum 97% purity
Advanced injection characteristics due “carrier” 4% PEG solution
Creates better injection characteristics under BSS.
Sinks immediately to posterior pole as a cohesive ball.
Stains only target tissue and no diffusion throughout the eye.
