- HA Hyaluronic Acid
- M average molecular weight
- Table 1 shows that CPC activity toward three bacteria and two fungi (C. Albicans and F.
- Salami is lowered on average only by about one-half log in the sum microbial kill level of five common microbes, relative to the HPMC-containing formula.
- the loss of some activity toward S. aureus indicates only slight ion pairing between CPC and this relatively high molecular weight HA material. The fact that only slight ion pairing is seen is contrary to the teachings of the prior art.
- compositions according to the present invention were prepared as shown in Tables 2A and 2B. Again, the cationic antimicrobial does not profoundly affect the efficacy of the antimicrobial agent.
- Alexidine Dihydrochloride is demonstrated to exhibit more antimicrobial efficacy (AME) activity on a weight-per- volume basis than CPC, when Tris buffer with 0.2% HPMC is used as the base formula.

- Complete® Moisture PlusTM multi-purpose solution (containing 0.15% HPMC and 1.0 ppm PHMB) serves as the non-HA con PHMB-HA formulation, while the CPC non-HA control is presented in Table 3 (at 2.0 ppm CPC and 0.15% HPMC).
- the ALX non-HA control for 2.0 ppm ALX is found in Table 2B.
- the data demonstrate that HA having a molecular weight of 1.5M or 0.8M has no measurable reductive effect on the antimicrobial efficacy of these three chemical entities, relative to HPMC at 0.15% or 0.2%.
- the relatively high molecular weight version of HA, 1.7M 5 is seen to produce the greatest inhibition of antimicrobial efficacy toward PHMB, where the sum of the kill level is reduced by about 4 log relative to the non-HA containing control and the lower molecular weight HA PHMB compositions.
- the ALX compositions are also significantly affected in antimicrobial efficacy by the highest presented molecular weight version of HA (1.7M), loosing about 2 log of activity relative to the lower molecular weight entities.
- the CPC shows the least effect on efficacy by the presence of the largest tested HA (1.7M), losing less than 1 log of sum activity. The loss of only some activity again indicates only slight ion pairing between CPC and this relatively high molecular weight HA material. The fact that only slight ion pairing is seen is contrary to the teachings of the prior art.
- the following example shows the effect on antimicrobial activity of a monomelic antimicrobial agent, CPC, of the addition of 0.5% of a commercially obtained (from Hercules Inc., Wilmington, DE) low viscosity form of carboxymethylcellulose.
- the resulting Test solution (Solution #4 in Table 4) exhibited a viscosity of 3.5 centipoises.
- the activity against three key organisms of the Test solution was evaluated in a series of increasing concentrations of CPC in solutions containing 0.2% HPMC instead of 0.5% CMC.
- the Test solution exhibited slightly higher activity against S. marcescens than the comparison solution having a slightly higher (but comparable) level of CPC (#5).
- the Test solution also meets the stand-alone criteria at this concentration of CPC.
- the Test and Control solutions only differ in the demulcent identity (CMC vs. HPMC) and concentration of CPC.
- CMC vs. HPMC demulcent identity
- concentration of CPC concentration of CPC.
- the CPC level in the Test solution is bracketed by the CPC levels in Solutions #3 and #5. While the 5. aureus log reduction is lower for the Test solution than for the bracketing concentrations of CPC control solutions, this degree of inhibition of activity against this organism is not prohibitive for the present applications.
