Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2442519A] A composition comprising an anolyte of electrochemically activated water for treating a wound; the composition having a chlorine content of no more than 50ppm. The composition may be used to treat or prevent a wound infection, particularly a bacterial wound infection caused by Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus spp. The composition may also comprise: a catholyte of electrochemically activated water; 10-20mg/l active oxygen species; 10ppm chlorine dioxide; no more than 10ppm hypochlorite; a redox potential of at least +900mV; one or more therapeutically active agents; and have a pH between 6 and 8. A composition comprising an electrochemically activated water anolyte, having a chlorine content of no more than 50ppm, for cleaning uncompromised skin is further claimed. One use of such compositions in the manufacture of a medicament and a wound dressing is also claimed.
