摘要 |
This invention discloses biocidal compositions and methods and more particularly, a novel nontoxic biocide and biostat composition and method for elimination and inhibition of gram negative bacteria (microorganism), viral, and/or fungal growth, especially molds. In one formulation, the novel biocidal composition is formed from equal amounts of potassium sorbate, lecithin, cellulose, and wax in a suspension with distilled mineralized water, preferably distilled mineralized water in combination with about 15% catalyst activated fluorine and chlorine free water. Using cellulose as a carrier for a wax to be ingested by a microorganism, fungal spore or virus is effective as a biocide because the ingested wax encapsulates the microorganism, fungal spore or virus, thereby effectively suffocating it.
