- 27. A method of administering electric current to a human, said method comprising administering to said human a composition comprising particulates comprising a first conductive material and a second conductive material, wherein the average particle size of said particulates is from about 1 micrometer to about 2 millimeters, the difference of the standard potentials of the first conductive material and the second conductive material is at least about 0.2 V, and said first conductive material and said second conductive material form a galvanic pair and generate said electric current.
- 38. A method of treating a skin, mucosal, or nail condition, said method comprising administering to said human a composition comprising particulates comprising a first conductive material and a second conductive material, wherein the average particle size of said particulates is from about 1 micrometer to about 2 millimeters, the difference of the standard potentials of the first conductive material and the second conductive material is at least about 0.2 V, and said first conductive material and said second conductive material form a galvanic pair and generate electric current.
- 48. A topical composition comprising particulates comprising a first conductive material and a second conductive material, wherein average particle size of said particulates is from about 1 micrometer to about 2 millimeters, the difference of the standard potentials of the first conductive material and the second conductive material is at least about 0.2 V, and wherein said composition is adapted such that said first conductive material and said second conductive material form a galvanic pair and generate electric current upon topical application.
