Oculus Innovative Sciences, Inc. introduced two new products to its U.S. family of Microcyn(R)-based advanced wound care products. An innovative advance in hypochlorous acid hydrogel technology, Microcyn(R) Wound & Skin Spray HydroGel is now available in a spray formulation, allowing it to be easily and conveniently sprayed directly onto the wound site. Available in a three-ounce spray bottle, this newest advance in hydrogel technology is reimbursable via HCPCS #A6248.

The second product is the proven and easy-to-use Microcyn(R) Wound & Skin Care with preservatives, which is now available for the first time in a multi-use two-ounce spray bottle. Used to cleanse, irrigate and aid in the debridement of a vast array of chronic and acute wounds, Microcyn(R) can be used prior to a variety of wound healing products and methods including products with silver, enzymatic debriders, growth factors, tissue-engineered products and dermal substitutes. The reduced bottle size allows it to be used both in the clinic, as well as economically dispensed or prescribed for patients' in-home use.

Microcyn Technology is a powerful solution that provides an optimal wound healing environment. It does not contain antibiotics, and as a result, evidence to date indicates it does not promote antibiotic-resistance in bacteria. Helping reduce wound odor via the removal of necrotic tissue, Microcyn also assists in the physical removal of biofilm, a major deterrent in wound healing.

Other offerings in the Microcyn family of products include an irrigation solution and a negative-pressure wound therapy solution available in pharmasling(R) bottles.
