Abstract
Two or more concentrates for preparation of a medical device, medical product, or first aid gel. The concentrates of the present disclosure are configured to be added, to be sold, transported, and stored in concentrated form to ease transportation, decrease the cost of transportation and storage, optimize storage space, minimize product cost, ease use of product, militate against risk of microbial contamination, and increase viscosity. A unique preservative gel has been discovered during the new process of heating monolaurin and sorbic acid in propylene glycol before cooling to form an antimicrobial gel. This is used in one of the concentrates as a preservative.
