Microcyn, put out by Oculus Innovative Sciences, may well be the real deal. Oculus has figured out a way to combine water and salt so that it kills single-celled organisms. The solution basically works by creating a osmotic imbalance which causes single celled organisms to rupture. This kills them dead. So, what would happen if someone in a drunken stupor accidentally drank the solution? Well, way to think ahead
! The solution would pose no threat to the person. How is that possible? The answer lies in the way that humans cells are “tightly bound.” This keeps the solution from surrounding the cells and causing hemorrhaging. The solution can help with diabetic ulcers, burns, and necrotic wounds. Doctors outside the US, where regulatory requirements are less stringent, have seen remarkable results from using the solution. People have had limbs saved due to rapid healing, invoked by the solution. Diabetics, burn victims, and other persons with chronic wounds will be cheering when microcym becomes widely available.

You can buy Vetericyn™, the veterinary version of Microcyn™. Probably the difference is container and labeling.
218-patient study indicates Microcyn(TM) Technology superior in microbial load reduction, healing time, surgical dehiscence and adverse side effects as compared to povidone iodine (10%)
Oculus Innovative Sciences, Inc. announced that Dr. Luca Dalla Paola, a surgeon with the diabetic foot unit of the Abano Terme Hospital in Italy, recently presented the results of a 218-patient controlled clinical study that assessed the safety and efficacy of Microcyn(TM) Technology in treating diabetic foot ulcers as compared to povidone iodine (10%) antiseptic, which is often used as the “standard care” in treatment of open wounds.

“In light of the positive evidence generated by this study,” said Dr. Dalla Paola, “my associates and I are highly enthusiastic about Microcyn’s potential to redefine the standard of treatment in diabetic foot ulcers. This study certainly warrants further examination of this super-oxidized water formula, not only in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers, but also in dealing with other chronic wounds and burns — essentially in any wound where infection is a challenge.”
