Hypochlorous acid is a natural antibacterial hand gel which could be used as a hand sanitiser without alcohol. Being alcohol free, soap free, non-scented, it is the perfect hand sanitiser for sensitive skin. It is a free chlorine molecule with the chemical structure HOCl. It is the dominate free chlorine species in chlorine solutions that have a slightly acidic to neutral pH (close to your skin). It is produced naturally by the white blood cells of all mammals, used by white blood cells to kill invading microbial pathogens, and is an oxidant 100 times more powerful than sodium hypochlorite (or chlorine bleach).

A summary of its advantages:

1) HOCl is a stable, non-toxic, and non-hazardous disinfectant. Unlike most chemical disinfectants, HOCl is non-irritant to eyes, skin, and the respiratory tract. Even if it were ingested by accident, it causes no harm. No rinse needed for food surface disinfection. It is the perfect restaurant sanitizer solution.

2) It is all natural and 100% safe as a hand sanitiser for kids. It is safe enough to be used on personal items such as toothbrushes, baby pacifiers, and toys for pets.

3) It is an instant hand sanitiser that is extremely effective against bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

How can it be used in schools?

HOCl can replace toxic concentrated chemical disinfectants for cleaning and disinfecting school rooms and common areas and can be placed throughout schools in dispensers for hand sanitation. In addition, it can be used in the school kitchen as a no-rinse sanitiser for meat, poultry, seafood, and to clean and disinfect all contact surfaces and kitcheware. HOCl can also be applied via foggers to broadly disinfect rooms and the air.

How can it be used in healthcare?

Since HOCl is produced by our white blood cells to protect against invading microbial pathogens, and HOCl is non-irritant and gentle on skin, it makes sense to use it to care for wounds. In addition to hand sanitising, It can be a better substitute for all general sanitising chemicals to clean healthcare facilities. Replacing toxic chemicals provides a safer environment for children and the elderly.

How can it be used in food safety?

Most of the research that has been done in terms of the practical applications of HOCl has been in the field of food safety. HOCl is a food grade sanitiser that can be used for dishes, kitchen, food surfaces. There is unlikely a food sanitizer more researched and more understood than HOCl. The research clearly indicates that HOCl is a safe food disinfectant and efficient for controlling microbial counts below infectious levels on both food and contact surfaces.

Where else can it be used?

HOCl can also be used after piecing, tattoos and for wounds on anywhere you have skin. It enhances your skin’s natural healing responses and support your skin against irritations, inflammation, and post-procedure sensitivities.

· ABSTRACT - Full Text PDF 294

Acidic electrolyzed water (AEW) is a product of an inexpensiveelectrolysis process. It can be easily synthesized using a simple andrelatively inexpensive technology. The of AEW as a disinfectanthas been previously described in the literature, most often inthe context of food disinfection, including fruit, vegetables, and eggs.It reduces the morbidity rate caused by bacteria that can be transmittedthrough these food products, such as Salmonella spp, Listeriamonocytogenes, Yersinia spp, and Escher...

Purpose To examine the magnitude of bacterial reduction on the surface of the periocular skin 20 minutes after application of a saline hygiene solution containing 0.01 pure hypochlorous acid (HOCl). Methods Microbiological specimens were collected immediately prior to applying the hygiene solution and again 20 minutes later. Total microbial colonies were counted and each unique colony morphology was processed to identify the bacterial species and to determine the susceptibility profile to 15 out...

Reduction of Particulate Matter and Ammonia by Spraying Acidic Electrolyzed Water onto Litter of Aviary Hen Houses: A Lab-Scale Study

Microbe(s): None

· ABSTRACT - Full Text PDF 267

Particulate matter (PM) concentrations are high in cage-free aviary hen houses due to accumulation of litter on the floor and hen activities. The of a spraying agent such as acidic electrolyzed water (AEW) to mitigate PM levels and disinfect houses has been reported, and high spray dosages will reduce PM to a low level. However, spraying a high dose of AEW may generate high levels of ammonia (NH3) due to an increase in litter moisture content (LMC). Lab-scale experiments were conducted to assess...

Slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW), considered as a broad-spectrum and high-performance bactericide are increasingly applied in the food industry. However, its disinfection mechanism has not been completely elucidated. This study aims to examine the disinfection efficacy and mechanism of SAEW on Staphylococcus aureus, compared with that of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). SAEW treatment significantly reduced S. aureus by 5.8 log CFU/mL in 1 min, while 3.26 and 2.73...

ABSTRACT - Full Text PDF 262

Slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) spray has been considered as a novel approach for airborne bacteria reduction in animal housing. This study aimed to optimize the operating parameters of SAEW spray based on the size distribution of sprayed aerosols, the available chlorine travelling loss in sprayed aerosols, and the reduction efficiency of airborne culturable bacteria (CB). The optimized operating parameters were the nozzle orifice diameter and the spray pressure. The size distribution ...

ABSTRACT - Full Text PDF 227

The capacity of slightly acidic hypochlorous acid water (SAHW), in both liquid and spray form, to inactivate bacteria was evaluated as a potential candidate for biosecurity enhancement in poultry production. SAHW (containing 50 or 100 ppm chlorine, pH 6) was able to inactivate Escherichia coli and Salmonella Infantis in liquid to below detectable levels (2.6 log10 CFU/ml) within 5 sec of exposure. In addition, SAHW antibacterial capacity was evaluated by spraying it using a nebulizer into a box ...
