ANTIMICROBIAL COMPOSITIONS |
摘要 |
Storage-stable compositions for generating antimicrobial activity are described. The compositions comprise an enzyme that is able to convert a substrate to release hydrogen peroxide, and an unrefined natural substance, such as a honey, that includes a substrate for the enzyme. In certain embodiments, the enzyme is a purified enzyme. In other embodiments, the substrate lacks catalase activity, and the enzyme is additional to any enzyme activity able to convert the substrate to release hydrogen peroxide that may be present in the unrefined natural substance. The storage-stable compositions do not include sufficient free water to allow the enzyme to convert the substrate. Use of the compositions to treat microbial infections and wounds is described, as well as methods for their production. |

1. A storage-stable composition for generating antimicrobial activity, which comprises:
a purified enzyme that is able to convert a substrate to release hydrogen peroxide; and an unrefined natural substance that includes a substrate for the enzyme;wherein the composition does not include sufficient free water to allow the enzyme to convert the substrate. |
