  • animate surfaces e.g., human skin, mouth and the like
  • inanimate surfaces including, but not limited to, hard surfaces like walls, tiles, table tops, glass, bathroom surfaces, kitchen surfaces, dishes as well as fabrics, clothes, carpets and the like.
  • Antimicrobial/antibacterial compositions include materials which have the ability to disinfect. It is generally recognised that a disinfecting material greatly reduces or even eliminates the microorganisms, e.g., bacteria, existing on a surface. Compositions based on halogen containing compounds like hypochlorite or on quaternary compounds, have been extensively described in the art for disinfecting purpose. Compositions comprising peroxide bleach are also known as disinfecting compositions.

  • composition: water composition: water
  • the presence of organic and/or inorganic soils decreases the bactericidal activity of many antimicrobial compounds like peroxygen bleach, resulting thereby in a lower bactericidal activity/disinfection power of compositions comprising them.
