摘要

A method for controlling the growth of at least one microorganism in an aqueous system susceptible to the growth of said microorganism and in recognized need of said control comprising the step of adding to said aqueous system an ionene polymer in an amount effective to inhibit the growth at least one microorganism selected from Campylobacter spp., Mycobacterium spp., Shigella spp., ribrio spp., Yersinia spp., Entamoeba spp., and poliovirus.
