Featured Abstract

In vitro activity of a hypochlorous acid-generating electrochemical bandage against yeast biofilms

The antibiofilm activity of a hypochlorous acid (HOCl)-producing electrochemical bandage (e-bandage) was assessed against 14 yeast isolates in vitro. The evaluated e-bandage was polarized at +1.5 V_Ag/AgCl to allow continuous production of HOCl. Time-dependent decreases in the biofilm CFU counts were observed for all isolates with e-bandage treatment.
