摘要:
Described herein is a method of reducing bacteria in the mouth of a subject, the method comprising contacting (e.g., rinsing) the mouth with an effective amount of a composition comprising a soluble derivatized chitosan, thereby reducing bacteria in the mouth of the subject.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to chitosan-derivative compounds and structures, methods of making chitosan-derivative compounds and methods for controlling, inhibiting and enhancing microbial populations in a variety of environments. The present invention is also directed to the control, inhibition and enhancement of microbial populations in animals, particularly humans. The microbial populations include bacteria, viruses and other pathogens where control of microbial populations are a necessity. The chitosan-derivative compounds of the present invention include chitosan-arginine compounds and chitosan-L/D natural amino acid derivative compounds, co-derivatives of said chitosan derivative compounds, and salts of said chitosan derivative compounds.
摘要:
Described herein are methods of treating wounds, the method comprising administering to a subject an effective amount of a composition comprising a soluble or derivatized chitosan wherein the soluble or derivatized chitosan when administered contacts the wound, thereby treating the wound.
摘要:
Described herein are methods of disrupting (e.g., reducing the viscosity of, or dissolving) a preformed biofilm in a subject, the method comprising: administering to the subject an effective amount of a composition comprising a soluble chitosan or derivatized chitosan wherein the soluble chitosan or deritvatized chitosan when administered contacts the preformed biofilm, thereby disrupting (e.g., reducing the viscosity of, or dissolving) the preformed biofilm.

摘要:
Described herein are methods for treating or preventing a disease or disorder of the pulmonary system (e.g., cystic fibrosis), respiratory or digestive system in a subject, the methods comprising administering compounds or compositions comprising water soluble polyglucosamine and derivatized polyglucosamine.
