Definitions

  • the present invention relates to antibacterial compositions which possess synergistic activity through the use of a mixture of antibacterial agents. More specifically the present invention relates to a mixture of 3,4,4-trichlorocarbanilide and a chlorohydroxyphenyl phenyl ether, 2,4,4 trichloro 2' hydroxydiphenyl ether having the formula:
  • Patent 3,177,115 hexachlorophene and certain halogenated carbanilides possess synergistic activity, that is the degree of antibacterial activity of the halogenated carbanilides and hexachlorophene in combination is far greater than the antibacterial activity of these. agents when taken independently.
  • the discovery of synergism between hexachlorophene and certain of the halogenated carbanilides was important in that it permitted soap manufacturers and others to provide detergent compositions which have a high level of antibacterial activity, but on the other hand have a greatly reduced concentration of antibacterial agents.
  • the discovery was of further importance because one could then substantially decrease the amount of hexachlorophene employed in the antibacterial composition and thereby greatly reduce the tendency of such compositions to discolor upon prolonged exposure to light.
  • antibacterial compositions which include as antibacterial agents a synergistic combination of 3,4,4'-trichlorocarbanilide and 2,4,4'-trichloro-2'-hydroxydiphenyl ether.
  • our invention may be exemplified by a soap composition containing as the active antibacterial ingredient a synergistic mixture of (A) 3,4,4'-trichlorcarbanilide and (B) 2,4,4-trichloro-2'-hydroxydiphenyl ether wherein the ratio of A to B present in the soap is from about nine to forty parts of A to about one part of B.
  • the invention relates to the synergistic cooperation of these two agents when used in minor proportions in various compositions, especially antibacterial detergent compositions such as soap, and the discovery that this synergistic phenomenon occurs even at the high pH conditions existing in soap and other detergent formulations provides one of the important aspects of this invention.
  • the ratio of the preferred range of the carbanilide to the ehlorohydroxyphenyl phenyl ether is from about 9 to 40 parts of the carbanilide to about 1 part of the chlorohydroxyphenyl phenyl ether, the parts being by weight.
  • the chlorohydroxyphenyl phenyl ether is preferably used in the proportion of 1 part of the chlorohydroxyphenyl phenyl ether to from 9 to 40 parts of the carbanilide.
  • soap refers to the water-soluble ammonium, metallic, or organic base salts of various fatty acids, which are chiefly lauric, oleic, stearic, and palmitic acids. As used in this description, the term is intended to cover all products in which soap is a major constituent, for example, bar, flake, powdered, soft and liquid soaps; shaving creams, toothpaste, cleansing creams, etc.
  • the anionic type and nonionic type synthetic detergents can be used in place of the soap.
  • the anionic type synthetics suitable for use in the invention can be described as those detergents having pronounced cleansing power and including in their molecular structure an alkyl radical containing from 6 to 18 carbon atoms and a sulfonic acid or sulfuric acid ester radical. Either organic base, ammonium, sodium or potassium salts of the anionic type detergents can be used.
  • alkyl-aryl sulfonates such as sodium or potassium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, sodium or potassium octadecyl benzene sulfonate, and sodium or potassium octyl naphthalene sulfonate
  • the alkyl sulfates such as sodium or potassium salts of dodecyl, hexadecyl, and octadecyl sulfates
  • the sulfonated fatty acid amides such as sodium or potassium salts of the oleic acid amide of methyl taurine
  • the sulfonated monoglycerides such as the mono-coconut oil fatty acid ester of sodium 1,2-hydroxypropane-3-sulfonate.
  • the nonionic type synthetic detergents suitable for use in the invention may be described as those detergents which do not ionize in solution but owe their watersolubility to un-ionized polar groups such as hydroxy or other linkages.
  • the main types of detergents falling within this category are the polyoxyethylene ethers of the higher fatty alcohols and alkyl phenols; the polyethylene glycols of fatty acids; fatty alkylol amide condensation products; polymers of ethylene and propylene oxides; compounds formed by the addition of propylene oxide to ethylene diamine, followed by the addition of ethylene oxide; fatty acid ethylene oxide condensation products; condensation products of ethylene oxide and a fatty acid ester of a polyhydric alcohol or sugar; and the detergents prepared by heating together a higher fatty acid with a diethanolamine.
  • Some examples of synthetic nonionics suitable for the purpose of this invention are ethylene oxide-tall oil fatty acid reaction products; isooctyl phenol-ethylene oxide reaction products; propylene oxide-ethylene oxide reaction products; and combinations of isooctyl phenolethylene oxide with coconut oil fatty acid ethylene oxide reaction products.
  • synergistic combinations of the 3,4,4'-trichlorocarbanilide and the 2,4,4'-trichloro-2-hydroxydiphenyl ether can be added to the soap and other detergents by any suitable method which results in a uniform distribution of the agents throughout the entire mass.
  • EXAMPLE I A convenient and meaningful method of measuring the effectiveness of antibacterial compositions is by means of a modified agar streak method utilizing varying amounts and ratios of the individual antibacterial agents in a toilet soap medium. Briefly the test consists of making serial dilutions of soap containing varying amounts and proportions of the antibacterial agents. All solutions are maintained at 60 C. until they are dispensed. Aliquots of the dilutions are dispensed into measured amounts of nutrient agar at 50 C. and thoroughly dispersed. Plates are poured, allowed to solidify and streaked with a standard 4 mm. loopful of a 24-hour broth culture of Staphylococcus aureus FDA 209.
  • the bacteriostatic end point is determined.
  • the bacteriostatic end point hereinafter called the minimum inhibitory concentration, represents the minimum concentration in p.p.m. (parts per million) of the bacteriostatic agent or combination of agents necessary to inhibit all growth of the inoculant organism. No particular minimum inhibitory concentration has been established to determine the usefulness of an antibacterial agent, although the lower the end point the better the antibacterial activity and the smaller will be the amount of the agent or agents necessary to maintain a particular degree of effectiveness.
  • the soap utilized for these evaluations was a neutral white toilet soap containing about 20% by weight of sodium coco soap and about by weight of sodium tallow soap.
  • Antibacterial compositions consisting essentially of a detergent selected from the group consisting of fatty acid water-soluble soaps, anionic and nonionic synthetic organic detergents, and from 0.3% to 2.5% by weight of said detergent of a synergistic combination of 3,4,4-trichlorocarbanilide and 2,4,4 triehloro 2 hydroxydiphenyl ether wherein the ratio of said carbanilide to said diphenyl ether in the detergent is from about nine to forty parts of said carbanilide to about one part of said diphenyl ether, said parts being by weight. 7
  • Antibacterial compositions according to claim 1 wherein said detergent is a sodium soap of higher fatty acids and wherein the total concentration of said carbanilide and said diphenyl ether is about 1.1% by weight of said detergent.
