We are investigating the usefulness of a liquid absorbent for gelling the 
urine or other body fluid in bedpans in ambulance.

The product is call SaniSorb Plus.  It is a 5 gram packet of powder containing 
hypochloride as a santiizer.  You place this packet in the bedpan before 
giving the bedpan to the patient.

When liquid or urine come into contact with the packet, the paper packet will 
be dissolved and the powder absorbing the urine will then turn into a gel.  

This gelling process is real fast (10-20 seconds) with urine, a bit slower 
with blood.

I would appreciate your comment and suggestion for other uses by e-mail.

Mr. King F. Hui
