Replicine™ Functional Keratin® proteins have been shown to activate keratinocyte cells present in the wound and to stimulate them to quickly enter a hyperproliferative phase, an essential phase of wound healing[1].


Using Replicine Functional Technology, keragel and keragelT™ are keratin rich gels designed for full and partial thickness wounds, skin disorders and Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). They help create a moist wound environment which promotes autolytic debridement and supports the wound healing process.


keragelT™ has a lower viscosity and so is thinner than keragel™, this is better suited to application to the delicate skin of EB patients.

Applying keragelT™ *

  1. Cleanse and debride the wound in accordance with normal procedures
  2. Ensure that the skin surrounding the wound is dry
  3. Apply a layer of keragelT™ to cover the entire wound surface, smooth in if required
  4. Cover with an appropriate secondary dressing if necessary

Daily application of keragelT™ is recommended for at least one month to observe the potential benefits associated with using the product.

Applying keragel™ *

  1. Cleanse and debride the wound in accordance with normal procedures
  2. Ensure that the skin surrounding the wound is dry
  3. Apply a 3mm to 6mm layer of keragel™ to cover the entire wound surface
  4. Cover with an appropriate secondary dressing
