Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a skin or surface disinfectant composition with broad spectrum antimicrobial activity comprising one or more essential oil (and/or one or more component thereof) and one or more fruit acid.
  • the compositions of the invention may be used as non-toxic alternatives to conventional disinfectants or may be combined with other antimicrobial agents to enhance their activity.
  • the invention provides effective alternatives to harsher products, and may be particularly useful in personal care and household product applications and where children and/or pet exposure may be a concern. 2. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Essential oils are volatile oils obtained from plant or animal sources and are composed of complex mixtures of several constituents, such as monoterpenes and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, monoterpene and sesquiterpene alcohols, esters, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, oxides and the like. These essential oils and their isolated constituents are frequently utilized as fragrance and flavor agents, and have been widely used in folk medicine for wound healing properties.
  • Essential oils of eucalyptus have been found to "possess central and peripheral analgesic effects as well as neutrophil-dependent and independent anti-inflammatory activities" (Silva et al., 2003, J. Ethnopharmacol. 89(2-3);277-283), and similar activity has been observed in essential oils from Lavendula angustifolia Mill. (Hajhashemi et al., 2003, J. Ethnopharmacol. 89(1):67-71). Essential oils have been demonstrated to exhibit antibacterial (Bezic et al., 2003, Phytother. Res. 17(9 :1037- 1040; Goren et al., 2003, Z.
  • Virucidal activity of essential oils has also been observed, including direct virucidal effects against Herpes simplex viruses types 1 and 2 (Garcia et al., Phytother. Res. 17(9): 1073-1075; Minami et al., 2003, Microbial Immunol. 47(a):681-684; Schuhmacher et al., 2003, Phytomedicine 10:504- 510).
  • United States Patent Application Publication No. 20050048139 by Modak et al., published March 3, 2005 relates to topical compositions comprising an emollient solvent and an essential oil, which may further comprise additional additives, among which citric acid, glycolic acid and lactic acid are cited. It does not recognize the synergistic activity between essential oils and fruit acids nor does it disclose the concentrations of fruit acids to be used to provide a synergistic effect.
  • United States Patent Application Publication No. 20050019431 by Modak et al., published January 27, 2005 relates to compositions comprising a quaternary ammonium compound and an essential oil (or active component thereof).

  • the present invention relates to a skin or surface disinfectant composition with broad spectrum antimicrobial activity comprising one or more essential oil (and/or one or more component (i.e. , an "Individual Constituent" or "IC") thereof) and one or more fruit acid.

Except for citric acid, which was added by weight, all other ingredients were measured by volume. 0.9 ml of each solution were dispensed in sterile culture tubes, in triplicate, and 0.1 ml of a 10 7 cfu/ml S. aureus culture was added to the tubes, vortexed, and then, five minutes later, 9.0 ml of drug inactivating medium was added to each tube. Serial dilutions were made with the drug inactivating medium.
  • Two stock solutions of a hard surface cleaner/disinfectant was prepared, with the following ingredients (the two solutions contained different amounts of cinnamon leaf oil, and therefore the amount of alcohol to bring the solution to 100 % also varied).
  • 0.1 ml of culture containing approximately 1 x 10 7 colony forming units (“cfu”) per milliliter was spread evenly on the surface of 2.5 x 11 cm 2 tiles using a glass rod and left at room temperature for 10 minutes to dry. After 10 minutes 0.3 ml of the diluted surface disinfectant was spread evenly on the tiles with a sterile glass rod and left for another 10 minutes to dry.
