The proprietary formulation and manufacturing process of SyDERMA® with its combination of a specifically chosen skin protectant, antimicrobial, and other ingredients, work together in a unique way to help protect exposed skin from harmful, external environmental irritants and to significantly reduce the risk of cross contamination and infection from bacteria commonly found on the skin. A complete explanation of its effectiveness against common strands of bacteria in laboratory tests and the laboratory test protocols is contained in the Safety and Efficacy Test Results section of this booklet. These test results are provided by certified laboratories engaged in testing products of this nature for environmental, food and beverage services, pharmaceutical markets, law and regulatory agencies.

When allowed to completely dry on the skin surface, SyDERMA® forms a non-ionic, hydrophobic barrier. The ingredients in SyDERMA® combine to provide a layer of protection against the possible penetration of bacteria and other contaminates onto the skin. Further protection against bacterial and contamination invasion is provided by the naturally occurring bonding of SyDERMA® with the cellular structure of the skin, while at the same time, allowing the skin to perspire and breathe naturally. These combined mechanical and antibacterial properties of SyDERMA® work together to provide an excellent line of protection against possible bacterial and environmental contamination.
