Electrosynthesis and biological properties of persulfate–chloride solutions

Resumo

A method for electrochemical synthesis of medical solutions for oxidation of toxic substances in the human organism has been developed. The method is based on electrooxidation of sodium sulfate in the presence of chloride and NaOH microadditions (in amounts that provide рН 13) in a filter-press membrane electrolyzer. A diagram is presented for choosing the optimum ratio between the current density and the flow rate of electrolyte during the electrosynthesis of a medical solution. The use of an electrolyte of the suggested composition under the optimum electrosynthesis conditions leads to solutions with physiological рН values (7.2–7.4) and high oxidative ability with respect to Micrococcus sp. and Staphylococcus coag (–), but there was no injuring effect on blood cells.
