A New Era in Anti-Infectives

 

The following data is based upon testing done on the Microcyn® Technology platform and does not necessarily infer that similar data would be generated in testing on various Microcyn-based products or formulas under development.

MIcrocyn Technology

The Science Behind Microcyn Technology
Microcyn Technology is a unique shelf-stable pH-neutral oxychlorine compound.

Microcyn has been studied for its clinical benefits and safety, a number of these findings peer-reviewed and published. These studies demonstrate that the Microcyn Technology delivers wound healing benefits, reduction of inflammation, cure or improvement of infection and antimicrobial activity; all while remaining safe and biocompatible as evidenced in a 2007 study published in the International Wound Journal. The reason for this safety is that mammalian cells have evolved with special pumps to regulate the active ingredients in Microcyn Technology while viruses, spores and bacteria, including drug-resistant bacteria, lack this ability. 

One of Microcyn Technology’s primary modes of action is its ability to treat a wide range of pathogens, including antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria (including MRSA and VRE), viruses, fungi and spores, as it is described in a study published in May/June 2006 issue of Diabetic Microvascular Complications Today. It has also been demonstrated in research studies that Microcyn induces vasodialation and inhibits inflammation.

The Microcyn Technology chemistry mimics the same oxychlorine composition as that manufactured by neutrophils in the body’s immune system.  

Inactive and Active Ingredients

 

Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cells in humans and form an integral part of the immune system. As demonstrated in the video below, a human neutrophil senses and moves toward a yeast cell. Next, it surrounds and digests the yeast cell. The neutrophil uses an oxidative or respiratory burst to produce a number of active ingredients including hypochlorous acid to kill the yeast.
