Cinesteam® Is a Groundbreaking Medical Device That Uses
Cinnamon's Uniquely Adsorbent Power To Manage Unpleasant Smells
Created by Wounds and Similar Injuries
FORT
LAUDERDALE, Fla., March 29,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Wound healing can be a long
and complicated process. Along with the healing itself, patients
must consider factors such as a clean environment and consistent
care. Quality of life can also be impacted by something as simple
as unpleasant smells emanating from a chronic or long-term injury —
something commonly referred to as wound malodor. Cinesteam® makes
it possible to effectively manage malodorous wounds.
Cinesteam® is an innovative over-the-counter (OTC) medical
device that uses cinnamon to capture and mask unpleasant smells
from malodorous wounds. The key here is the spice's ability to
adsorb smells.
"Many odor management options either clean the air or add
additional smells to an environment to combat an existing smell,"
explains Clémence Desjardin, Director of Operations and Business
Development at Cemag Care. "In either case, this only gets half of
the job done. Cinesteam® dressings are designed to do both jobs at
once by using cinnamon's adsorbent power and pleasant smell."
Desjardin elaborates that the biofilm on a wound is made of
bacteria. This can emit a foul odor, which can pollute the air
around a patient. If a fragrance is introduced to counteract that
smell without removing the smell itself, it will mix with it, which
can exacerbate the issue. Cinnamon has the chemical properties
required to not only provide a pleasant smell but also adsorb
unwanted odors.
Adsorption (which is different from the commonly used term
"absorption") is defined as "the adhesion in an extremely thin
layer of molecules (as of gases, solutes, or liquids) to the
surfaces of solid bodies or liquids with which they are in
contact." In other words, cinnamon is capable of trapping and
retaining unwanted malodorous smells. This cleans the air and
replaces unpleasant odors with a positive alternative. This leads
to more effective odor management and a higher quality of life for
those healing from wounds and similar injuries that are prone to
producing malodorous smells.
