DEVICE DESCRIPTION: 

SYLKE® Skin Closure is a single-use, sterile, woven silk fibroin mesh strip coated on one side with a pressure-sensitive adhesive. The adhesive surface is covered by a removable release liner with a pre-slit tab. 

HOW SUPPLIED: 

Each SYLKE® Skin Closure strip is provided sterile in an individually sealed pouch. The device is available in multiple lengths and widths. Refer to product label and regional catalog for specific dimensions and available packaging configurations.

INTENDED USE:  

SYLKE® Skin Closure is a sterile, single-use, silk fibroin mesh strip with a pressure-sensitive adhesive intended for topical skin closure and wound support. The device is used to hold together well-approximated skin edges of a wound, and to cover and protect the wound. The device is designed for wear of up to 14 days. SYLKE® Skin Closure may be applied by healthcare professionals or, where permitted by applicable laws and regulations, by lay users following the included instructions.  

INDICATIONS:  

SYLKE® Skin Closure is indicated for topical closure and coverage of thoroughly cleansed simple lacerations and minor cuts, where it may be used as the primary skin closure. SYLKE® Skin Closure is also indicated for topical closure and coverage of post-surgical skin incisions in which deeper layers have been closed, where it is used as an adjunct to sutures or staples. Wound edges must be easily approximated without tension. 

CONTRAINDICATIONS: 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use on infected or contaminated wounds. Signs of infection may include: pus, pain, warmth, redness, swelling, and/or fever. If any signs of infection are present, seek medical attention. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use on wounds containing dirt, debris, or other contaminants. Wounds must be thoroughly cleansed prior to application. Trapping contaminants beneath the device may lead to infection. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use in high-tension wounds without the support of additional skin closure devices e.g., sutures. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use on wounds that are actively bleeding. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use below the skin surface. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is contraindicated for use on mucosal surfaces or surrounding areas including lips, inside the mouth, eyes, eyelids, or the genital and perianal region. 

WARNINGS: 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is intended to be worn for up to 14 days. Early removal of SYLKE® Skin Closure may result in skin stripping, pain, and/or redness. To aid in early removal, SYLKE® Skin Closure may be soaked in warm water to soften the adhesive. 

  • If signs of infection are present around the wound covered by SYLKE® Skin Closure, contact a medical professional. 

  • Do not use SYLKE® Skin Closure if the sterile package is damaged or compromised. 

  • Individuals with a history of sensitivity to silk or adhesive materials may be at increased risk for skin irritation or allergic reaction. Monitor for signs of hypersensitivity, including redness, swelling, or rash at the application site. If any of these develop, remove the deviceand contact a healthcare provider. 

 PRECAUTIONS: 

  • Apply SYLKE® Skin Closure only to areas where adhesion can be obtained. Causes of inadequate adhesion include exudate, skin oils, moisture, or areas containing dense hair such as the scalp. 

  • Performance of SYLKE® Skin Closure under a secondary dressing has not been evaluated. Healthcare providers should use clinical judgment when considering the use of a secondary dressing over SYLKE® Skin Closure. Lay users should not apply a secondary dressing over SYLKE® Skin Closure without first consulting a healthcare provider. 

  • Submersion in water may impact the device's performance and duration of use.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: 

SYLKE® Skin Closure is not made with natural rubber latex. 

SYLKE® Skin Closure has not been evaluated for use in hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) environments. Safety and performance under hyperbaric conditions have not been established. Healthcare providers should use clinical judgment when considering the use of SYLKE® Skin Closure on patients undergoing HBOT.  

STORAGE:

STERILITY: 

SYLKE® Skin Closure is sterilized by ethylene oxide gas. Do not re-sterilize. Do not use if package is opened or damaged. Do not use SYLKE® Skin Closure if strip is damaged or discolored. Discard any unused material. 

APPLICATION: 

SYLKE® Skin Closure should only be used on clean, dry wounds when the skin edges of the wound are easily approximated without tension. Examine environment where SYLKE® Skin Closure will be handled and applied and ensure the absence of visible dirt or contaminants. 

  1. Thoroughly cleanse and dry wound to prepare skin for proper adhesion of SYLKE® Skin Closure to the wound edges. (FIGURE A)
  2. Open sterile pouch. Remove SYLKE® Skin Closure strip from pouch. (FIGURE B)
  3. With the release liner still in place, hold the strip alongside the wound to measure the required length. The strip should extend at least 1 cm beyond each end of the wound. (FIGURE C)
  4. Using clean scissors, trim the strip to the appropriate length. (FIGURE D)
  5. Hold the strip and peel back the pre-slit tab to expose the adhesive. (FIGURE E)
  6. Place the exposed adhesive section on the skin at least 1 cm beyond one end of the wound. Press firmly to anchor the strip to the skin. (FIGURE F)
  7. While holding the anchored end in place, slowly peel away the release liner and press the adhesive strip along the length of the wound. The strip should extend at least 1 cm beyond the opposite end of the wound. If the wound length exceeds the length of a single strip, repeat previous steps with additional devices. (FIGURE G)
  8. Press firmly along the entire length of the strip to secure. Check that all edges are flat against the skin and no sections are lifted. Proper adhesion is achieved by applying pressure evenly across the strip. (FIGURE H)

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WEAR: 

  • When showering, do not scrub the device with a loofah, exfoliant, or other abrasive. Gently pat dry. 

  • Do not swim or fully submerge the wound while wearing SYLKE® Skin Closure. 

  • Keep wound clean and free of dirt and debris. Dirt trapped in the SYLKE® Skin Closure may cause irritation or infection. 

  • Contact a healthcare provider if the device detaches partially or completely before 14 days or if signs of infection or irritation are present. 

  • Remove SYLKE® Skin Closure after 14 days. 

  • SYLKE® Skin Closure is a single-use device and must not be reapplied after removal 

REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS: 

  1. Gently lift the edge of SYLKE® Skin Closure at one end of the wound.
  2. Slowly peel SYLKE® Skin Closure away from the skin along the line of the wound. Use other hand to stabilize the surrounding skin to decrease tension as the SYLKE® Skin Closure strip is peeled off.
  3. If SYLKE® Skin Closure does not easily remove from skin, soak strip in warm water to soften adhesive.
  4. Once fully removed, discard the skin closure strip in a standard disposal bin. Do not re-use or re-sterilize the device.
  5. Any residual adhesive and/or dried wound exudate can be gently cleaned from the skin with warm soapy water. If residue remains, a medical adhesive remover may be used to loosen adhesive remnants.

Just what I was looking for in a salt shaker. It’s on the smaller side and the quality is great. I’m very satisfied with my purchase.

Great size, design, and 100% metal grinding mechanism
Color: 1pcs-Sliver-304
***PLEASE NOTE: This review is only for the more expensive version here with the all metal grinding mechanism and not the cheaper version that looks the same but has a ceramic grinder that’s also available on this page — hope this helps avoid potential confusion. My advice is to splurge on the metal grinder version. ***UPDATE 3/18/26*** Well, after almost two years of fairly heavy daily use the first flaw has emerged so thought I’d share. Yesterday the silver wrapping on the grinder part came loose making it hard to turn the grinder as it was slipping. I did a quick fix by adding some super glue around the seam at the top of the grinder and that’s done the trick at least for now. I’m leaving my 5-star rating because I remain thrilled with its overall performance and frankly would’ve ordered another one if this fix didn’t work, but so far it appears to be holding. 🤞 So still very happy but just wanted to share in case anyone else experiences this. ***UPDATE 8/18/25*** So I’ve now had this for over a year, and under pretty heavy daily use I’m happy to report it still works as well as the day I bought it. Great product, and it’s a pleasure to use every day. ***UPDATE 10/3/2024*** So, after almost four months of pretty heavy daily use I just wanted to report back that this grinder continues to work perfectly and shows every sign of lasting for years to come. I especially like the glass jar so I can see when I’m running low on black peppercorns, and even though it’s got a small form factor it holds a lot so I don’t have to refill it frequently despite using it multiple times daily. I’m super happy with this product all around and recommend it highly!!! ================================ Been using this for a few days now and am very happy so far. I’ve used a traditional wood pepper mill my whole life, but now it’s just me so I wanted something smaller and with a glass body so I can easily see when I need to add more peppercorns. I also wanted an all metal grinding mechanism (that this version has for an few dollars more) instead of ceramic, which doesn’t seem to hold up as well, and I definitely wanted no plastic parts involved in the actual grinding either — don’t need any more microplastics in my diet thank you. This one seemed to check all the boxes, and so far it’s been great. Initially it was set to a more fine, powdery grind, but it was super easy to adjust to a more course grind that I prefer and it’s perfect. Overall it seems well built and is very easy to use, and as long as this holds up it’s a definite keeper. I’ll report back if any future mishaps, but as of now I’d recommend this very highly!

Most excellent spice grinder!
Color: 1pcs-Sliver-304
This spice grinder grinds my cumin and coriander seeds perfectly with very little effort and it’s attractive. I’m sure it will last longer than my plastic one that broke recently. Very happy with my purchase!
