Litholyme does not contain NaOH or KOH, which have been shown to cause degradation of anesthetic agents into harmful compounds
As Litholyme reaches CO2 absorption capacity or becomes desiccated, it turns a deep violet color and stays this way, permanently
Litholyme has efficient CO2 absorption properties which allow it to last as much as 30% longer than other premium CO2 absorbents
The hard D-shaped granules are optimized for maximum flow with low potential for channeling. This resilient absorbent formulation exceeds USP standards, with minimal dust content and optimal porosity
There is no potential to generate carbon monoxide or compound A, making Litholyme a safer CO2 absorbent for use in standard or low flow anesthesia protocols
Better efficiency means fewer canister changes and lower overall CO2 absorbent costs
For all Dräger® anesthesia systems including Apollo® Pallas® and Primus® .
