ABSTRACT:
Absorbent articles containing both an acidic buffering agent and a non-toxic, non-irritating, non-volatile antimicrobial agent are disclosed. The acidic buffering agent is preferably also an absorbent gelling agent which can imbibe aqueous body fluids in addition to acting as a buffer. Such articles are especially suitable for maintaining the pH of urine and feces discharged into the article at value below about 7.5. This in turn helps to prevent or reduce diaper rash and control odor caused by the production of ammonia.
