The invention comprises a method for generating a biocide, comprising the steps of generating a solution of polymers comprising charged amines on nitrogen containing repeating backbone monomers, the solution comprising chloride anions as counterions to greater than fifty percent of the charged amines and a pH less than four; and subsequently: (1) increasing a pH of the solution by at least one pH unit and (2) decreasing the chloride anion concentration of the solution by at least five percent to yield a reduced chloride anion solution, the reduced chloride anion solution yielding the biocide, the biocide inactivating, with physical contact for greater than two minutes, both: greater than fifty percent of a bacteria and fifty percent of a virus. Methods of increasing the pH and decreasing the chloride concentration optionally include increasing the pH, forming a solid salt, rinsing and lowering the pH and/or using an anion exchange material.

The present invention relates to a use of a CYP450 inhibitor in inhibiting or killing mites and treating xerophthalmia. A large number of experiments show that the CYP450 inhibitor can be used for inhibiting or killing mites, can effectively shorten the survival time of mites, and can be used for a mite killing and inhibiting product (such as drugs, cosmetics, daily necessities, or the like). In addition, it is found that the CYP450 inhibitor may also be used in the treatment of xerophthalmia, and can effectively alleviate and improve the symptoms of xerophthalmia.

The invention comprises a method for generating a polycationic polymer, comprising the steps of: (1) providing polyethylenimine polymers comprising at least four non-protonated amines for every protonated amine; (2) protonating at least two percent of the non-protonated amines with at least one organic acid, the step of protonating further comprising the step of introducing organic conjugate base counterions to the protonated amines; and (3) decreasing pH of a solution containing the polyethylenimine polymers by at least 0.5 pH units, the solution comprising at least five percent water. Optionally, the step of protonating further comprises the step of yielding formate counterions to the polyethylenimine polymer.
