Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl) is a powerful, tissue-friendly solution naturally produced by white blood cells. Our Surface and Hand Cleaner is uniquely designed to mimic the antimicrobial properties of other HOCl cleaners known to help reduce inflammation and pain and promote faster healing. Unlike traditional disinfectants, HOCl is non-toxic and safe for frequent use.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repetitive collapse of the pharyngeal airway. This study investigates the effect of nasal and oral breathing on pharyngeal airway stability using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to determine which breathing route contributes most to airway collapse.

The EPA's Interim Decision confirms that hypochlorous acid poses no aggregate risk to the general population, including infants and children, and is exempt from tolerance requirements for residues in food. Formulations on food-contact surfaces are safely limited to 200 ppm total available chlorine.
