BROAD-RANGE ANTIBACTERIAL COMPOSITION

摘要

A composition of matter which demonstrates efficacy against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria comprising: (a) a gram negative bacteria inhibiting effective amount of propionibacteria metabolites with the proviso that such metabolites not solely comprise propionic acid; (b) a gram positive bacteria inhibiting effective amount of a lantibiotic; and (c) a chelating effective amount of one or more phosphate salts which function as a chelating agent to bind the propionibacteria metabolites and lantibiotics to the surface of the substrate being treated and its method of use is provided.
