摘要

ANTIMICROBIAN COMPOSITION AND METHODS FOR KILLING OR DISABLING MICROORGANISMS IN A MAMMALIAN MUCOSA TISSUE TO TREAT AN INFECTED INJURY OR INJURY TO DECOLONIZE MICROORGANISMS TO PROVIDE A SUPPORTIONAL TRACIAL EFFICIENCY Antimicrobial compositions, particularly those useful when applied topically, particularly to mucosal tissues (i.e. mucous membranes), including, in particular, a fatty alcohol ester of a hydroxycarboxylic acid, such as its alkoxylated lactic acid derivatives, or combinations thereof . The compositions may also include an enhancer component, a surfactant component, a hydrophobic component, and / or a hydrophilic component. Said compositions provide effective topical antimicrobial activity and therefore are useful in treating and / or preventing conditions that are caused or aggravated by microorganisms (including viruses).
