Description

Sodium alginate is a biocompatible polymer that is used in the treatment of wastewater. It is a water-soluble substance that forms a viscous solution when dissolved in water. Sodium alginate has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, as well as to reduce the number of coliforms and other microorganisms in water. The potential for an alginate to be biocompatible depends on its chemical structure, with Laminaria Hyperborea being the most biocompatible. Alginates have been shown to have surface properties that are similar to those of natural tissue, making them useful for wound dressings.
