About Bionext®
Bionext® is a semi-transparent membrane composed of a pure cellulose nanofiber mesh spun by Acetobacter Xylinum. The fibers form a strong and resilient scaffold for tissue regeneration. The membrane is designed to regulate water moisture, promote cell metabolism and protect wounds from external microorganisms.
Bionext® is an effective biological wound treatment which may be used as a temporary skin substitute on lesions such as burns, traumatic wounds , chronic ulcers, and diabetic wounds. Acting as a powerful barrier against bacterial infections, Bionext® aims to protect injuries against the external environment, avoiding the exogenous events that might normally interfere with the healing process. Due to its selective permeability, Bionext® allows the passage of gases and blocks the passage of liquids and external agents.
Bionext®, fully adheres to the lesion in a practical and safe way , forming a saline layer that automatically detaches, as soon as the tissue is reconstructed. This allows for dressing to remain intact for up to 15 days, eliminating frequent dressing changes.
Advantages: Bionext helps to reduce pain, maintain healing temperature, hemostasis, decrease electrolyte loss, and optimize the healing process.
Handling and Ease of Use
APPLICATION STEPS:
- Remove Bionext from the package after preparing the wound bed (Figure A and B).
- After calculation the wound surface, adjust the size of Bionext to be used maintaining sterile conditions (Figure C).
- Apply on the lesion (Figure D).
- With gauze soaked in sterile solution (HOCl Solution, sterile water, saline Ringers, PHMB) gently press the Bionext on the injury for a full adherence (Figure E).
- Remove excess exudate and air bubbles between Bionext and the wound bed (Figure F).

Unique Properties
Bionext is developed using a proprietary patented process that provdes significant advantages over other bicellulose products on the market:
Bionext has:
- Greater mechanical resistance
- Better handling capabilities
- Greater capacity for water retention
- Faster in reducing patients’ pain
Advantages of Bionext:
- Pain reduction
- Maintains moist and warm environment
- Decreases electrolyte loss
- Effect barrier to external contamination
- Transparent – wound is visible for examination without dressing removal or disruption
- Can stay in place up to 15 days
HANDLING PROPERTIES COMPARRISON OF TWO BIOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES
Bionext
- Thinner and stronger. Easy to manipulate, apply and conform.
- Patient pain reduced significantly from immediately to 15 minutes.
- Remained moist throughout, until epithelization was achieved, and then he membrane dried and released.
- Good adhesion to wound bed.
Nexfill
- Thicker, less pliable. Weak when wet.
- Patient pain reduction in 4 plus hours.
- Did not retain moisture well. Became dry and brittle. Required applications of water/fluid.
- Some difficulty with adhesion.
