A disinfecting floor mat having a disinfecting wet station (or wet side) onto which a user may step and wet the bottoms of his/her shoes with a disinfecting and/or cleaning solution are described. The wet section can comprise a shallow pool over which an elastomeric cover is provided that has small holes. slits or other openings distributed thereon permitting the solution to flow therethrough when the cover is stepped upon to make contact with the shallow pool bottom. A reservoir of cleaning solution can be provided that is in fluid communication with the shallow pool to help ensure it remains full. Optionally, the floor mat can further include a drying section (or dry side) located next to the wet section to permit a user to substantially dry the bottoms of his/her shoes after disinfecting the shoe bottoms in the wet section.

Methods include producing a gelled sanitizer composition, including preparing a hydrating fluid composition including water and one or more of alcohol and peroxide; preparing a hydratable additive; and combining the hydrating fluid composition and the hydratable additive to produce a gelled composition. Methods also include flowing a hydrating liquid composition in an extensional flow regime through an elongated passageway of an extender, wherein the hydrating liquid composition includes water and a C2-C10 solvent, and a flow rate of the hydrating liquid composition and a diameter of the elongated passageway are sufficient to achieve a Reynolds number of 20,000 or greater; and adding a hydratable additive to the hydrating liquid composition in the elongated passageway to produce a mixture comprising the hydratable additive that is at least partially hydrated.

A household product contains a fragrance composition, in which the fragrance composition contains from about 0.2 to less than 10% by weight of isopulegol, based on the total weight of the fragrance composition. A method for delivering a perceived cooling sensation in the air includes dispersing isopulegol into the air, or implementing the household product as the above.

A wipe comprising a substrate and a cleaning and/or disinfecting compound retained by one or more cyclodextrin compounds. The wipe is wet with one or more fluids comprising water to release the cleaning and/or disinfecting compound from the one or more cyclodextrin compounds, and applied to a surface to clean and/or disinfect the surface.

A method of atomizing a fluid composition is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: providing a fluid composition; atomizing the fluid composition from a nozzle of a microfluidic die, wherein the atomized fluid composition comprises a plurality of droplets having a bimodal distribution, wherein the bimodal distribution comprises: 80% or greater of the total volume of the plurality of droplets is less than 10 pL; 30% or greater of the total volume of the plurality of droplets is less than 5 pL; and 30% or greater of the total volume of the plurality of droplets is from 6 pL to 10 pL.

The present invention relates to a fragrance composition for suppressing malodor, comprising an alcohol fragrance, a lactone fragrance, or both, and more specifically, to a fragrance composition that can suppress malodor and unpleasant odor that may be generated by the human body, or clothes or environments being in contact with the human body. The fragrance composition of the present invention was completed by applying a single fragrance of an alcohol fragrance or lactone fragrance, or a mixture of both, thus being able to more effectively act against malodor while providing a more luxurious and excellent aromatic property compared to the conventional fragrances with a rather simple aromatic property.

A chemical disinfection process for vehicles using chlorine dioxide and titanium dioxide with calculated re-treatment formulas and schedules based on bacterial infestation data. Systems and methods that include client devices and servers that monitor and control a chemical disinfection process. The system generates a surety arrangement that facilitates re-treatment and electronic notification alerts to chemical solution vendors, dealers and vehicle owners.

A method for disinfecting a contaminated pressurized assisted breathing machine, namely a sleep apnea machine including said machine's components and maintaining said machine's fluid quality between use on patients, which comprises the steps of preparing an aqueous solution comprising alcohol-glycerin-chlorhexidine gluconate-dye-flavoring agent; purging and removing machine's existing fluid from said machine and said machine's components; introducing the said aqueous solution into said machine and said machine's components; purging with pressurized fluid by removing said aqueous solution and contaminants from said machine and said machine's components; introducing pressurized fluid into said machine and said machine's components for flushing and rinsing said machine and said machine's components.

A method of treating respiratory system tissue, includes operations of generating a plume of particles of a treating solution from a nebulizer, inhaling particles of the treating solution, delaying exhalation of an inhalation having particles of the treating solution therein, and determining whether a dose of the treating solution has been delivered, wherein the treating solution is a solution of at least 40% ethyl alcohol, by volume.
