A METHOD TO STABILIZE LIPOSOME EMULSIONS FOR BIOCIDAL DELIVERY

摘要

An improved stabilized biocidal delivery system has been found which increases the efficiency and effectiveness of introducing antimicrobial compounds into complex bio-film matrices through the use of liposome emulsion in an ethoxylated compound, thereby removing the bio-fouling in industrial water bearing systems, including piping, heat exchangers, condensers, filtration systems and fluid storage tanks. The liposome emulsion is comprised of a vesicle encapsulated biocide that is stabilized against chemical and heat degradation over longer periods of time than previously possible through the incorporation of one or more stabilizer compounds.
