  • Publication number: 20240325335
    Abstract: A topical aqueous antibiofilm, antimicrobial, and antiviral composition to disrupt biofilm to enhance the killing of microbial and viral particles in a way that prevents and reduces the severity of conditions and infections that are due to such microbial pathogens and viral particles is provided. The composition comprises a fatty acid chosen from saturated and/or unsaturated medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs: C-8 to C-12), saturated and/or unsaturated long chain fatty acids (LCFAs: C-13 to C-26), and/or their derivatives, salts, sugars and esters. The composition also comprises a solubilizing agent, preferably a cyclodextrin, which additionally synergizes the antibiofilm effect, and may be formulated for nebulization/inhalation. The composition further comprises chelating and enhancing agents, and either a neutral, acid or alkaline pH. The composition comprises skin and mucosal permeation enhancers, which improve clinical efficacy.

  • Patent number: 7165561
    Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing biofilms are described. The systems and methods are particularly suitable for use with conventional aqueous crossflow filtration systems, such as reverse osmosis systems. The addition of the enzyme/surfactant compound has been found to enhance the effectiveness of conventional crossflow filtration processes by decreasing or inhibiting the growth of biofilms and other contaminants.
