How it Works

Fighting Healthcare Acquired Infections (HAI’s) and Pathogens with Science not Chemicals

In humans, neutrophils make up 40% to 70% of all white blood cells and form an essential part of the innate immune system. These neutrophils produce a chemical called Hypochlorous Acid or HOCl, one of the most effective known biocides to kill pathogens.

So how do neutrophils & Hypochlorous acid (HOCI) work?

Although we have simplified the process, it is actually a very complex process that involves receptors, lysosomes, phagosomes and phagolysosomes. The complete process is referred to as phagocytosis.

  1. When a pathogen is detected in the body, antigens mark it and a signal is sent out.
  2. When the neutrophil receives a signal, it slows down in the blood stream and squeezes through the blood vessel.
  3. The neutrophil then moves towards the marked pathogen and engulfs it.
  4. Once it is engulfed, HOCl is released to destroy the pathogen.

The power of Electro-Chemical Activation (ECA)

Thanks to Paradigm Convergence Technologies Corp (PCT), a United States company based in South Carolina, Earth Safe Solutions is able to produce HOCl outside the body through a process known as Electro-Chemical Activation (ECA) using only natural salt minerals, water and electricity.

Through the ECA process, the Chlorine ions and the Sodium ions in the aqueous solution are split producing Hypochlorous Acid (ES Hydrolyte) and Catholyte (ES Catholyte) respectively.

Electro-Chemical Activation Process

Using specially designed electrolytic cells, the technology behind the ECA process produces an effective variable PPM hypochlorous acid solution that is a powerful oxidizing agent exhibiting highly effective antimicrobial properties.

A natural byproduct of the electrolysis process, ES Catholyte or sodium hydroxide (NaOH), is an aqueous solution that is used to reduce microbe contamination and soil loads that can harbor germs on hard surfaces.

ES Catholyte is also a very effective cleaner | degreaser and is a great option to safely clean floors and other non-porous surfaces without hazardous fumes, thus improving indoor air quality.

Both ES Hydrolyte and ES Catholyte come as a Ready to Use formula and contain No Alcohol, Dyes, Fragrances, Phenols, VOCs or Harsh Chemicals.
