In a collaborative team effort between the ENT department at The University of Adelaide and centres of excellence in New Zealand, we have developed “Chitodex” surgical gel, which uses a polymer derived from squid. The gel possesses both anti-bleeding and anti-scarring properties which will be further strengthened by incorporating compounds with potent wound-healing properties. The new product will be used around the world to reduce complications after spine surgery.

在阿德莱德大学耳鼻喉科和新西兰卓越中心的合作团队努力下，我们开发了“Chitodex”手术凝胶，它使用了一种从鱿鱼中提取的聚合物。该凝胶具有抗出血和抗瘢痕形成的特性，这将进一步加强与强大的伤口愈合特性的化合物。新产品将在世界各地使用，以减少脊柱手术后的并发症。
