The spray is called “Pathogen Capture and Neutralizing Spray” (PCANS) for now
This data suggest PCANS as a promising daily-use prophylactic against respiratory infections.
The study is paywalled, and the abstract doesn’t list its ingredients beyond
The formulation consists of excipients identified from the FDA’s Inactive Ingredient Database and Generally Recognized as Safe list to maximize efficacy for each step in the multi-modal approach.
Based on that description, its ingredients might not be very different from Covixyl, though it claims to be much more effective.
Edit: Apparently its already for sale, I included some details in a comment
Gel sprays basically do the same thing your own snot is doing. Physically catch and trap particles/viruses and stop them from entering your body.
The saline gel spray I was talking about would just be a physical barrier, but the other ones we were talking about have some ingredient to actively kill viruses on top of being a barrier.
