Fast-acting disinfectant compositions for reducing or eliminating microbial populations

摘要

In one embodiment, a disinfectant composition includes a peroxide, a peracid, an anionic surfactant, a nonionic polymer, and one or both of a linear fatty alcohol and an alkyl pyrrolidone. The disinfectants provide greater killing rates for microbial populations in short periods of time, and therefore can be considered to be fast-acting disinfectants.

主权项

1. A disinfectant composition comprising:
a peroxide; a peracid; an anionic surfactant; a nonionic polymer; a linear fatty alcohol present at a concentration of approximately 0.01% w/w and 0.9% w/w, wherein the linear fatty alcohol is a C8 to C13 linear fatty alcohol; and an alkyl pyrrolidone wherein said composition demonstrates sporicidal disinfection of C. difficile or Bacillus subtilis spores with two minute contact time.
