Benzoyl Peroxide Formulated Polycarbophil/Carbopol 934P Hydrogel with Selective Antimicrobial Activity, Potentially Beneficial for Treatment and Prevention of Bacterial Vaginosis

<table>The breakdown of BPO upon contact with epithelium. BPO undergoes a homolytic fission resulting in two benzoate radicals which pass into the bloodstream where it is protonated into benzoic acid then deprotonated. Free cations in the blood will be attracted, but no further modifications will occur while in the body.</table>
