Definitions

  • the invention relates to antimicrobial compositions and their methods of use.
  • the invention relates to silver dihydrogen citrate compositions comprising quaternary amines, an oxidizing agent or a halogen compound, and methods of using the compositions to confer an antimicrobial effect on various substrates.
  • antimicrobial compounds A large number of antimicrobial compounds are known. Compounds that kill or prevent the spread of microbes have been used for a variety of purposes and in numerous products to prolong product shelf-life, and to confer antimicrobial benefits to end-users, their possessions and their environments. Some antimicrobial compounds that may be mentioned include quaternary ammonium compounds, oxidizing agents and halogen compounds.
  • Quaternary ammonium compounds are cationic surfactants that have been shown to have antibacterial properties. In addition to antibacterial properties, some quaternary ammonium compounds also possess deodorant, wetting, detergent, keratolytic and emulsifying activities.
  • Benzalkonium chlorides are mixtures of alkylbenzyldimethyl ammonium chlorides, and are widely used as antiseptics in clinical settings. Benzalkonium chlorides are also used as preservatives, for example in ophthalmic solutions, due to their activity against various bacteria, including Gram-positive and some Gram-negative bacteria, as well as some viruses and fungi. However, benzalkonium chlorides are not effective against some Gram-negative bacteria, such as Pseudomonas . While such compounds are beneficial at relatively low concentrations, at higher concentrations they can be irritating or even toxic. Also, quaternary compounds tend to dissipate in the environment quickly, and thus tend not to provide extended antimicrobial effects when applied to solid surfaces and other substrates.
  • Oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide
  • Hydrogen peroxide is known as a disinfectant for disinfecting skin and wounds and for disinfecting water supplies.
  • Potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) is an oxidizing agent that has been used as a bactericide, fungicide and algicide in cooling towers, evaporative condensers, air wash systems, cooling fountains, and in human drinking water. Potassium permanganate has also been used to control external infections of fish in aquariums and ornamental ponds.
  • Monopersulfates such as potassium monopersulfate, are used as disinfectants and as shocking agents for the occasional disinfection of swimming pools and spas.
  • oxidizing agents In use as shocking agents, monopersulfates oxidize and break down chloramines, thereby increasing the effective concentration of free chlorine or in chlorine-treated water.
  • Other oxidizing agents that may be mentioned are benzoyl peroxide and sodium perborate, which have also been used as antimicrobial compounds. While oxidizing agents are very effective disinfectants, they tend to degrade quickly in the environment, and thus are not suitable for providing antimicrobial effects over an extended period of time.
  • Halogen compounds have also been used as disinfectants. Although they may be thought of as oxidants, halogen compounds are categorized separately herein, in view of their special characteristics. The most commonly used antimicrobial halogen compounds are chlorine and iodine. Bromine is also used in some situations, as where a person who may come into contact with the antimicrobial is known to have a sensitivity to chlorine.
  • Iodine is one of the oldest known disinfectants, and is used for wound treatment, skin disinfection and water sanitization. Iodine may be used as an iodine tincture or as an iodophor. Iodine tincture, USP, is a 2% solution of free iodine with 2.4% sodium iodide in 50% ethyl alcohol or isopropyl alcohol. Tinctures can be applied directly to skin for disinfection and wound treatment, or can be diluted in water for disinfection.
  • An iodophor is a composition including iodine, detergents, wetting agents, solubilizers, and other carriers. Iodophors often contain as much as 30% iodine by weight, of which about 70-80% may be released as available iodine upon dilution. These compounds are safe with low toxicity and almost no odor. While not as irritating as tinctures, when used on skin iodophors can act as desiccants and can result in dermatitis.
  • Chlorine may be prepared in situ by electrolysis of an electrolyte solution containing chloride ions. Chlorine made in this manner is short-lived, but is a highly effective water disinfectant, for instance in swimming pools, spas and drinking water systems. Chlorine may also be prepared as liquid bleach, that is as sodium hypochlorite. Chlorine may also be prepared as a solid hypochlorite, which is often formed into cakes or tablets that may be directly placed within water containers to produce the desired disinfectant effect.
  • Bromine is less-widely used as a skin disinfectant and wound treatment than is iodine. Bromine has also been used as a sanitizing agent in cooling towers, swimming pools and spas. When dissolved in water, liquid bromine forms disinfectant hypobromous acid. Disinfectant bromine is often sold to the public as a concentrated liquid in water.
  • halogens are potentially irritating, especially to the eyes, mucus membranes and open wounds. Additionally, the halogens are also potentially toxic when ingested. Thus, it is generally desirable to use the halogens for disinfection at their lowest effective concentration.
  • Antimicrobial metal ion solutions are commonly used as disinfectants. Silver solutions have been used as disinfectants in cooling towers, swimming pools, hot water systems in hospitals, portable water systems and spa pools. Additionally, silver ion solutions have been prepared for the treatment of wounds, however the silver ions used in the proposed methods are unstable and must be generated near the wound in order to deliver a therapeutic dose to the wound site.
  • Silver salts such as silver citrate salts
  • these dusting agents must be kept dry and are generally not convenient for imparting preservative value to consumer products or for delivering antimicrobial effects to an end user or to the environment of the end user.
  • Colloidal silver has found a variety of uses, including: as a wood preservative; as a disinfectant of food and beverage containers and industrial processing equipment; as a bactericide in paints; as a biocide in synthetic polymer films; and as a sterilizing agent in bandages.
  • Aqueous solutions of silver dihydrogen citrate and citric acid have been disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,197,814 (incorporated herein in its entirety) as disinfectants in a variety of settings. These water solutions of silver dihydrogen citrate and citric acid are made by passing an electrical current through a pair of silver electrodes that are immersed in a water solution of citric acid. These silver dihydrogen citrate solutions are effective against a wide-variety of microbes, including bacteria, viruses and fungi, and are non-toxic in the human environment at concentrations effective to combat microbial infestation.

  • the compositions provide immediate antimicrobial effects due to the combination of silver dihydrogen citrate and the second antimicrobial agent, as well as extended antimicrobial effects due to the persistent antimicrobial action of silver dihydrogen citrate on the treated substrate, notwithstanding the degradation of the second antimicrobial agent.
