Abstract: An electrochemically treated solution and method for cut flower and plant preservation, the solution having potassium, hypochlorous acid, and dissolved oxygen.
Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for treating and preventing conditions characterized by infection and/or inflammation, especially of the eyes, ears, nose, and/or throat. The methods of the invention involve administering hypohalous acid to the patient, such as in the form of a composition described herein.
Abstract: A device (10) for producing a biocidal solution has a sealed and replaceable reservoir (16) with a low volume capacity which contains pre-prepared aqueous salt solution (18) with a pre-determined concentration, an electrolytic cell (20) for electrochemically treating the salt solution (18), a pump (28) for delivering a flow of accurately measured volumes of the salt solution (18) to the electrolytic cell (20), a restrictor valve (36) for controlling further the flow rate of the salt solution (18) to a cathode chamber (24) of the electrolytic cell (20), an electrical circuit (46) for connecting the pump (28) and the electrolytic cell (20) to a mains supply source (48) and including a power pack (50) for providing a substantially constant direct current of (7) to (12) amps to the electrolytic cell (20) and an operator-controlled switch (52) for completing the electrical circuit (46) when the switch (52) is operated to produce a biocidal solution (12) having a predetermined level of available free chlorine and p

Abstract: A method of treating and/or managing cystic fibrosis in a patient by administering an electrolyzed saline solution containing hypohalous acid. Preferably, the hypohalous acid is hypochlorous acid. Also provided is a method of treating and/or managing cystic fibrosis by administering an electrolyzed saline solution at specific pHs such as between 5.0 and 6.2. The present invention also provides a method of administering an electrolyzed saline solution for treating and/or managing cystic fibrosis using a combined electrochemical generator and a vaporizer, humidifier or fogger. Combination therapies are also provided.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to apparatuses and systems for storing, dispensing, and reconstituting materials. Apparatuses may comprise a container to store a material having an open end and a dispensing aperture. A cover may be configured to seal the open end of the container and a sleeve can include a passageway to slidably receive the container. The container may be moveable within the sleeve between a storing position wherein the dispensing aperture is covered and a dispensing position wherein the dispensing aperture is uncovered to dispense the material. Systems may additionally comprise a reservoir having an opening and the sleeve configured for mounting on the reservoir opening so that when the container is moved to the dispensing position the material is dispensed into the reservoir to form a reconstituted material.
