Abstract

Methoxy polyethylene glycol for use as a medicament, in particular in skin healing, wound healing and treatment of a microbial infection. A method for treating a medical device and/or implant to reduce or eliminate microbial contamination comprises applying a liquid formulation comprising methoxy polyethylene glycol. This invention relates to the novel discovery that methoxy polyethylene glycol, an inactive polymer with no known pharmacological effect, was able to come between microbes and a surface, removing the microbes or releasing the attachment or adherence of the microbes to the surface and thereby improving wound healing significantly, eliminating infections and colonies of microbes.
