GI endoscopy

3-D Matrix is committed to advancing patients outcomes in gastroenterology and supporting healthcare professionals through its innovative self-assembling peptide technology.

Our flagship product in gastroenterology, PuraStat, is a ready-to-use, slightly viscous hydrogel, composed of self-assembling peptides (SAPs).

Founded at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), PuraStat is licenced as a medical device to achieve haemostasis and minimise delayed bleeding. There is literature that suggests
PuraStat facilitates the re-epithelization of the mucosal layer, promoting healing (1-2).
