Halazone: From Water Disinfection to Ion Channels
2026-08-18
Halazone is more than a conventional water disinfection agent: its HOCl-generating chemistry creates a bactericidal phenotype, while oxidant-sensitive membrane processes can alter neuronal sodium-current inactivation. This thought-leadership analysis translates those observations into practical guidance for microbiology, neurophysiology, and antimicrobial resistance research without overstating the compound’s translational maturity.
