Abstract
The antimicrobial effectiveness of hypochlorous acid, generated by a biochemical system treatment that utilises enzymes and substrates normally found within tissues, was examined in the presence of protein (horse serum) and human blood cells. The solution (E-101) demonstrated sustained and more potent killing than sodium oxychlorosene (a slow release agent for hypochlorous acid) against S. aureus in the presence of both serum and blood.
