I'd be cautious regarding the MIOX solution & wounds - it's basically bleach, and bleach (as well as betadine, iodine, peroxide, etc..) are not good for wounds (tissue necrosis, impaired epithelialization, etc...)- a well diluted solution (to the point of being potable) would work ok as an irrigant. I definitely wouldn't put anything stronger in the wound (although medically used for a long time, sodium hypochlorite - Dakin's Solution - has fallen out of favor for the reasons listed above, among others)

BTW - keep an eye on EMS's website - they have some super deals occasionally - I picked up a MIOX set for $60 a couple of months ago.
