About

Inteligels, an Israeli startup, is commercializing a technology from Hebrew University Prof. Daniel Cohn that turns a 'smart' bandage from liquid to solid and back again. The bandage is designed to dissolve in response to a trigger such as cool water, eliminating the pain of removal. It can be spread as a gel or sprayed on, then solidifies, and is transparent to allow wound viewing. The initial applications are for chronic conditions with severe and sustained pain, with a long-term roadmap for home use. Inteligels is the developer of a painless instant bandage made from a smart polymer. The company's product fits wounds of any shape or size by creating a flexible bandage substitute that turns to liquid by means of a simple trigger.
