In our study, 1/1, 1/2 and 1/10 concentrations of electrolyzed water produced via Envirolyte device have been found to be effective on all yeasts and molds used within one minutes. Moreover, it has been seen to be effective within one minute against 1/20 concentration of C. albicans which is most commonly isolated from fungal pathogens in hospitals. In addition, it was effective on 1/100 degree concentration of C. glabrata within thirty minutes and in ten minutes on 1/100 A. flavus concentration.
