Kendall AMD Antimicrobial Foam Dressings contain Polyhexamethylene Biguanide (PHMB), a bacteria-killing polymer.

PHMB is a safe, stable chemical with over 75 years of commercial use in such products as baby wipes, contact lens solutions and pool cleaners.

PHMB binds to bacterias phospholipid (outer) membrane.
Disrupts membrane, causing cytoplasm to leak out.

Bacterial cell collapses and dies.
Nothing is left behind to mutate or replicate, so there is no known resistance.
PHMB in the dressing continues to provide bacterial protection.
