Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an organic disinfecting agent comprising at least one amino acid, at least one amino acid derivative and/or at least one iminosugar, and polyglucosamine.
  • the disinfecting agent can be used for sanitizing surfaces or can be applied in combination with cleaning agents, such as detergents.
  • Disinfectants are extensively used in everyday life to prevent microbial spread and microbial infections, such as in the health care sector, the food industry, agriculture, or in common household products.
  • disinfectants are provided in solution and applied directly onto contaminated surfaces, such as in hospitals or of laboratory equipment, or skin wounds. In case these disinfectants are not neutralized, such as by autoclaving, or cannot be easily neutralized, they finally accumulate in the waste water. Such contamination may ultimately result in the emergence of microbial strains that are resistant to commonly used antimicrobial agents.
  • an antimicrobial agent which comprises environmentally friendly chemical agents.
  • the agents are preferably natural, organic compounds. Such compounds are usually biodegradable, thereby reducing the risk of accumulation and contamination of the environment.
  • the agents should be well tolerated by living tissues and could be used, for example, for sensitive applications such as preservative for food, as wound sanitizing agent or in combination with cleaning agents, for example detergents used in laundry machines.
  • the production of such antimicrobial agents should be cost-efficient, in particular in terms of the costs for the chemical agents used.
  • the present invention solves the shortcomings of the state of the art by providing in a 1 st embodiment of the invention a disinfecting agent comprising
  • the inventors have found that common amino acids, peptides and quaternary ammonium comprising amino acid derivatives, or iminosugars can be combined with polyglucosamine (chitosan) to achieve a high antimicrobial activity.
  • the at least one amino acid, amino acid derivative, iminosugar and/or polyglucosamine each carries at least one positive charge. Such positive charges are believed to adhere to the negatively charged membranes of microorganisms and to disrupt the membrane integrity, thereby acting biocidal.
  • At most 1%, preferably at most 0.8%, more preferably at most 0.1% of the amine groups of polyglucosamine are functionalized with the at least one amino acid, and/or amino acid derivative.
  • the polyglucosamine is non-animal derived.
  • non-animal derived polyglucosamine can be isolated from fungi, such as mucorales.

  • amino acids and/or amino acid derivatives with an isoelectric point above 7 allows that the acids and/or amino acid derivatives carry a positive net charge at any pH value below the isoelectric point. Thus, the higher the isoelectric point, the larger is the range of pH values suitable for providing a positive net charge.
  • amino acids or amino acid derivatives such as quaternary ammonium comprising amino acid derivatives, may have a constant positive charge, which is pH independent. It has been found that a positive charge of the amino acid and/or amino acid derivative applied to the textile enhances the overall antimicrobial activity, in particular against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Positive charges are believed to adhere to the negatively charged membranes of microorganisms and to disrupt the membrane integrity, thereby acting biocidal.

  • the L-enantiomers of amino acids and peptides can be easily obtained from cultures, e.g. of E. coli, L. lactis or S. cerevisiae, rendering a complicated, cost-inefficient chemical synthesis unnecessary.
  • the amino acid is lysine, arginine, or histidine, preferably arginine.
  • the naturally occurring amino acids lysine, arginine, or histidine, in particular the L-enantiomers thereof, are environmentally friendly, as they can be obtained from common biological cultures. Moreover, these amino acids can be used as food additives or preservatives in the food industry, as they are non-toxic to living tissues. Arginine is one of the preferred amino acids because it is available at comparatively low costs.
  • the peptide is a dipeptide or a polypeptide, preferably wherein the polypeptide contains 3 to 50 amino acids.
  • the amino acid derivative is a lantibiotic, preferably wherein the amino acid derivative is nisin.
  • Nisin is commonly used as a food preservative, and, thus, can be also used for sanitizing packages or other products in the food industry.
  • the iminosugar is D-fagomine.
