  • Antimicrobial compositions are used, for instance, to disinfect or sanitize surfaces and objects in the food service industry, in the healthcare industry, in industrial settings, and for consumer household use. In one embodiment, antimicrobial compositions are used to sanitize or disinfect surfaces, such as hard, non-porous surfaces.
  • Antimicrobial compositions are also used for algae control in recreational and pond waters.
  • Some antimicrobial compositions are known to contain hydrogen peroxide.
  • Hydrogen peroxide has advantages and benefits to being used as a disinfectant and biocide because it decomposes to oxygen and water and therefore is very safe to use.
  • Another advantage to hydrogen peroxide is that it has a broad spectrum of biocidal activities against many different types of organisms. Unfortunately, however, hydrogen peroxide, when used alone, can have a relatively low rate of activity.
  • a 6% aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution only provides about a 3 log reduction against Staphloccus aureus, and less than a 2 log reduction against Pseudomonas aeruginosa after 5 minutes of contact time.
  • a 6000 ppm hydrogen peroxide solution can only achieve about a 1 log reduction and less than a 1 log reduction against staphylococcus and pseudomonas after 5 minutes of contact time, respectively.
  • the killing efficiency of hydrogen peroxide can be improved by using a higher concentration of hydrogen peroxide or a longer contact time.
  • Compositions containing concentrated amounts of hydrogen peroxide can be corrosive and unstable. In addition, contact times of longer than 5 minutes are not practical or acceptable for many applications.
  • Peracetic acid as an activated hydrogen peroxide, is one of the most widely used peroxyacids for disinfecting and inhibiting rapid bacterial growth. PAA is commonly used to kill bacteria in the dairy industry, to control microbial growth in process waters in the pulp and paper industry and for bleaching paper pulps. PAA is also used to control algae growth in ponds and other water bodies. However, PAA compositions generally contain acetic acid causing the compositions to possess a very strong odor, especially when concentrated.

  • the solutions of the present disclosure having a total peroxide concentration between 250 to 500 ppm based on the amount of hydrogen peroxide used for producing the concentrate composition (Sample Nos. 1 , 2, 3, 4 and 5), or >100 ppm activated hydrogen peroxide in the use solution (Sample No. 4), and having a pH in the range of about 3 to 4 achieved a greater than 5 log reduction within 5 minutes of contact time against a number of specific target Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pseudomonas) and Staphylococcus aureus (Staphylococcus).
  • Sample No. 5 demonstrates that a diluted level of about 1000 ppm of hydrogen peroxide or less than 200 ppm activated hydrogen peroxide can achieve greater than 5 Log reduction in hard water within less than one minute of contact time against a number of target organisms such as
  • compositions are also very effective against three fresh water algae, Chlorella pyrenoidosa, Raphidocelis subcapitata and Microcystis aeruqinosa. As shown in Table 3, the compositions showed good efficacies with respect to the conventional Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) values. The compositions displayed less than 7.8 ppm against Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Raphidocelis subcapitata and 1 .0 - 2.0 ppm against Microcystis aeruginosa. The MIC values are based on the amount of hydrogen peroxide used for producing the initial compositions.
  • MIC Minimum Inhibitory Concentration
  • Sample No. 5 The initial composition: Sample No. 5: 9.66% octanoic acid, 10.9% hydrogen peroxide, 0.58% tungstic acid, 0.25% phosphoric acid, 10.98% water and 67.6% propanol.
  • Example No. 1 The procedures described in Example No. 1 were repeated for the following compositions, which produced the following results when tested according to the OECD Quantitative Method. Table 4 AHP compositions and OECD test results
  • Sample No. 7 demonstrates that a diluted level of about 470 ppm activated hydrogen peroxide can achieve greater than 5 Log reduction in hard water within about 30 seconds of contact time against a number of target organisms such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne une composition antimicrobienne contenant du peroxyde d'hydrogène et/ou un peroxyacide organique en association avec de l'acide peroxytungstique. Dans un mode de réalisation, la composition contient en outre un acide organique et de l'acide tungstique. La composition antimicrobienne est très efficace pour désinfecter des surfaces dans tous les domaines, tels que dans la restauration et dans l'industrie de la santé. La composition antimicrobienne est également bien adaptée à lutter contre les algues.
