Description

    RELATED APPLICATION
  • This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/345,798, filed Jan. 16, 2003, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/349,636 filed Jan. 17, 2002. Application Ser. Nos. 10/345,798 and 60/349,636 are incorporated by reference.
  • TECHNICAL FIELD
  • This invention relates to synergistic mixtures of o-phenylphenol and/or its sodium salt with tetrahydro-3,5-dimethyl-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione commonly used in cement admixtures and slurries.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • O-phenylphenol and Sodium orthophenylphenate (separately or collectively sometimes herein known as “OPP”, orthophenylphenol or o-phenylphenol) are used extensively as antimicrobial agents in various industrial applications such as preservation of various materials including paints, adhesives etc. as well as to control unwanted microorganisms found in various process waters such as cooling water, paper mills and petroleum production.
  • Microbiological growth can cause contamination of products that requires the use of preservatives, as well as process waters, where Antimicrobials are required to prevent contamination. Preservatives are required for a broad range of products including but not limited to adhesives, cosmetics and toiletries, disinfectants and sanitizers, leather, metalworking fluids, paints and coatings, plastics and resins, latex polymers, textiles and wood. Failure to preserve these products adequately will result in spoilage and loss of the materials to be preserved and will result in an economic loss. Similarly, microbiological growths can have dire consequences if process waters are not adequately treated. Process waters include but are not limited to: industrial recirculating water, paper products and paper, petroleum production and leather tanning. Process waters are of concern because when fouled with biofilms that develop from the indigenous microbes present, biofilms may develop into thick gelatinous like masses. Slime is produced by a wide range of bacteria, fungi, and yeast. Slime will interfere with the process resulting in a loss of heat transfer, corrosion and fouling. Slime also detracts from systems cleanliness.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • This invention includes synergistic ratios of aqueous suspensions of orthophenylphenol or Sodium orthophenylphenate with the following chemical antimicrobials:
      • bis (Trichloromethyl) sulfone
      • 1-Bromo-3-chloro-5,5-dimethylhydantion
      • 1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-one
      • bromonitrostyrene
      • 2,2-dibromo-3-nitrilopropionamide
      • 4,5-dicloro-1,2-dithiol-3-one

      • Diiodomethyl-p-tolylsulfone
      • sodium hypochlorite
      • tetrahydro-3,5-dimethyl-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione
  • Generally, any ratio of OPP to the other antimicrobial within the range of 1%-99% to 99%-1% by weight may demonstrate a synergistic effect to some degree, but we prefer to use the most efficient combinations, which may include a wide range of ratios, as will be seen below.
  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION:
  • Orthophenylphenol was found to produce synergistic blends with other antimicrobials. The synergistic blends were determined using a dose protocol. The actives were evaluated in synthetic white water with pH values of 5.5 and 8.0. The materials were tested against an artificial bacterial consortium containing approximately equal numbers of six bacterial strains. Although the test strains are representative of organisms present in paper mill systems, the effect is not limited to these bacteria. Two of the strains were Kiebsiella pneumoia (ATCC 13883) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 15442). The other four strains were isolated from papermill systems and have been identified as Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens, Burkhlderia cepacia, Bacillus maroccanus, and Pseudomonas glethei. Each strain was inoculated at 37° C. overnight, then suspended in sterile saline. Equal volumes of each strain were then combined to prepare the consortium. The bacterial consortium was distributed into the wells of a microtiter plate in the presence or absence of various concentrations of the active materials. The microtiter plates were incubated at 37° C. Optical density (O.D.) readings at 650 nm were taken initially (t0) and after time 4 hours (t4) of incubation.
  • The raw data was converted to “bacterial growth inhibition percentages” according to the following formula:
    % Inhibition=[(a−ba]·100
  • where:
  • a=(O.D. of control at tn)−(O.D. of control at t0)
  • b=(O.D. of treatment at tn)−(O.D. of treatment at t0)
  • The inhibition values can be plotted versus dosage for each active and the particular blend. This results in a dose response curve from which the dosage to yield 50% inhibition (150) can be calculated. In the examples (tables) below, the 150 values are expressed as parts per million (ppm) of active material. The synergism index (SI) was calculated by the equations described by F. C. Kull, P. C. Eisman, H. D. Sylwestrowicz, and R. L. Mayer (1961), Applied Microbiology 9, 538-541. The values are based on the amount needed to achieve a specified end point. The end point selected for these studies was 50% inhibition of bacterial growth.
    Synergy Index (SI)=(QA÷Qa)+(QB÷Qb)
  • where:
  • QA=quantity of compound A in mixture, producing the end point
  • Qa=quantity of compound A1 acting alone, producing the end point
  • QB=quantity of compound B in mixture, producing the end point
  • Qb=quantity of compound B1 acting alone, producing the end point
  • If SI is less than 1, synergism exists; if SI is greater than 1, antagonism exists, if SI is equal to 1, an additive effect exists.
  • Example 1 deals with a blend of bis (Trichloromethyl) sulfone and o-phenylphenol.
  • EXAMPLE 1
  • This example shows the synergistic activity between o-phenylphenol and bis (Trichloromethyl) sulfone under a concurrent feed strategy, against article bacterial consortium in synthetic white water at pH 5.5 and 8.0.

    *Dazomet - tetrahydo-3,5-dimethyl-2H-1-3-5-thiadiazine-2-thione
  • An additional example of the synergism of Dazomet and NaOPP can be seen as follows.
  • EQUIPMENT used for the experiment are as follows:
      • 1. Incubator capable of maintaining a variable temperature range (25-45 C.);
      • 2. Samples of each biocide or test compound to be examined;
      • 3. Microtiter plates—96 well with lid, sterile;
      • 4. 8-12 channel micropipetting device capable of pipetting 0-250 ul volumes;
      • 5. Micropipette tips capable of holding up to 250 ul volumes;
      • 6. Sterile microbiological culture broth. Trypticase Soy Broth (TSB) or Nutrient Broth (NB) is recommended for bacteria and Sabouraud Maltose Broth (SMB) or Sabouraud Dextrose Broth (SDB) is recommended for yeasts and molds. In the case of this particular study the microbiological culture medium was Nutrient Broth at pH 7.0, 8.0 and 9.0;
      • 7. Pure cultures of microorganisms of choice grown on appropriate agar medium;
      • 8. Sterile distilled water;
      • 9. 100 mL volumetric flasks (one for each biocide to be tested);
      • 10. Sterile 10 mL tubes of Phosphate buffer (Butterfield's buffer pH 7.2+/−0.2). Contains purified water, monobasic potassium phosphate and sodium hydroxide for pH adjustment;
      • 11. Sterile cotton swabs;
      • 12. 0.5 MacFarland Turbidity Standard;
  • Preparation of Bacterial Inocula
  • The day before testing, perform a streak plate of each organism to be tested on an appropriate agar medium (Trypticase Soy Agar). Organisms tested in this study were.
  • Wild strain bacteria isolated from previously contaminated industrial systems and which were identified as: Pseudomonas sp., Escherchia coli, Enterobacter sp., Alcaligenes sp. and Alcaligenes faecalis. On the day of the test, use a sterile cotton swab to harvest some of the growth. Place swab into a tube containing 10 mL sterile phosphate buffer. Compare and adjust the turbidity of the organisms in the tube to 1×108 cfu/mL using a 0.5 MacFarland Turbidity Standard. Dilute the 10 mL tube into 90 mL of sterile 2× nutrient broth at pH 7.0, 8.0 and 9.0.
  • The following procedure was used:
      • 1. Design the layout of the microtiter plates based on the number of organisms to test and the number of biocides and desired concentrations to test. A separate microtiter plate is required for testing each biocide alone, in addition to the combination microtiter plate.
      • 2. Prepare a working stock solution of each biocide to be tested. For the combination microtiter plate, the working stock solution of Biocide A will be 8× the concentration desired in the first well of the combination microtiter plate. The working stock solution of Biocide B will be 4× the concentration desired in the first well of the combination microtiter plate. For the alone microtiter plates, the working stock solutions of Biocide A and Biocide B will both be 4× the concentration desired in the first well of the single biocide microtiter plates.
  • Biocide A
  • Tetrahydro-3-5-dimethyl-2H-1,3-5-thiadiazine-2-thione (Dazomet): (For combination plates) A solution of this product, which is 99% active, was made as follows: 8×8000=8000 ppm active=8000/0.99=8080 ppm, 0.8 g into 100 mL MeOH and sterile diH2O.

  • Interpretation
  • Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC)—the lowest concentration of test compound that results in no evidence of growth at the end of the incubation period.
  • Determine the K value for each combination biocide the MIC level: K = concentration of Biocide A in comb Concentration of Biocide A alone + concentration of Biocide B in comb concentration of Biocide B alone
  • If K<1, the biocides are considered to be synergistic.
  • If K=1, the biocides are considered to be additive
  • If K>1, the biocides are considered to be antagonistic.
