Abstract
A skin dressing is provided comprising a first component including a source of protons, a second component including a nitrite salt, the skin dressing further comprising a non-thiol reductant. The skin dressing is adapted, such that, when the first and second components are brought together and applied to a skin site the nitrite reacts to generate nitric oxide, increasing the pH of the dressing in contact with the skin site from an acidic value to a more neutral value.
