Microdacyn wound care is a ready-to-use wound irrigation solution with activated (nascent) oxygen. It is made from ultra-pure water and small amounts of NaCl using Oculus Innovative Science's patented Microcyn technology.

Features:

• Alcohol-free
• Hypoallergenic
• Without iodine
• Latex-free
• No artificial coloring

Principle of action:
The ingredient hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in Microdacyn 60 wound care uses a physical defense mechanism against pathogens, similar to the body's natural processes. Foreign bodies are not chemically removed but destroyed through a purely natural physical process. The hypotonic Microdacyn 60 wound care solution ensures that more water flows into the cells to balance the osmotic gradient, leading to osmolysis (non-specific osmotic shock) where cells burst due to increasing internal pressure.

Mechanical effect of the sterile solution:
The wound irrigation solution facilitates the mechanical removal of microorganisms and cell breakage. Microorganisms are largely flushed away with Microdacyn 60 wound care, and other soluble components are also removed. Microdacyn 60 wound care can be left on the wound to soak and aids in debridement, as pre-damaged cells in infected wounds lyse more rapidly under its influence.

Sterility and effect of the preservative:
The preservative in Microdacyn 60 wound care, hypochlorous acid (HOCl), has excellent antimicrobial properties, ensuring the sterility of the wound irrigation solution throughout its use. It can also effectively eliminate unpleasant odors that often occur in wounds.

Compatible with all wound dressings, dermal substitutes, maggot therapy, and can be used under occlusion, V.A.C. Instill, VersaJet, and Jetox.
