Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and their use for the treatment of human skin, particularly facial skin, to alleviate the symptoms of cosmetic or determatologic skin conditions. The invention relates to compositions for treating and ameliorating skin conditions including acne, rosacea and wrinkling caused by photodamage or conditions related to aging, hormonal imbalances, hyper-pigmentation, melasma, keratosis or the like. The invention can also be used to treat conditions of the scalp such as dandruff. The present invention also relates to compositions that can be used to remove biofilms from contact lenses. More particularly, this invention relates to a composition comprising (a) one or more metasilicate; (b) one or more carbonate; (c) one or more glyconate; and (d) one or more sulfate. The composition may also contain (e) salts, e.g., sea salts and other additives or active agents.

Abstract: A composition for use in wound treatment is provided comprising (a) sodium meta-silicate, (b) sodium carbonate, (c) sodium gluconate, (d) potassium aluminium sulfate, and optionally (e) sodium chloride, which composition is especially suitable as a rinsing or soaking agent for cleaning surfaces of a wound, opening, loosening and removing biofilms from wound and other body surfaces, dissolving incrustations or scabs from body surfaces and as a dissolving agent for dressings. The composition has a beneficial and synergistic effect on the traditional treatment of wounds with antibiotics or oxidizing agents in that it makes the latter treatment more effective.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and their use for the treatment of water. In one embodiment, the invention provides for a compositions and their use for the treatment of microorganisms. This invention also provides compositions and their use to provide clean water in an environmentally-friendly manner. In another embodiment, the invention provides for compositions and their use in combination with common equipment for controlling the growth of micro-organisms, such as with an ozonator or UV-C lamp, in a water system such as in hot tub or pool. Additionally, the specification describes methods and compositions for controlling the growth of microorganisms in an aqueous system. Using the methods and compositions, one treats an aqueous system with an amount effective to control the growth of at least one microorganism.
