The present invention provides agents having efficacy against viruses, allergens, bacteria and odorants, materials including such agents, and methods for producing the agents. An agent according to an embodiment of the present invention includes titanium dioxide particles having low photocatalytic activity, and metal ions of at least one metal selected from gold, silver, platinum and copper that are adsorbed to the surface of the titanium dioxide particles. The agent may further include hydroxyapatite particles, and the metal ions may be adsorbed also to the surface of the hydroxyapatite. The metal ions may be at least partially present in the form of at least one of an oxide of the metal, a hydroxide of the metal, and the elemental metal.

Solid low foaming and low pH all-purpose cleaning and disinfectant compositions are disclosed. The solid disinfectant compositions comprise approximately 50% w/w to approximately 75% w/w of citric acid encapsulated by a binder and approximately 1% to approximately 5.5% w/w of sodium benzoate. The solid cleaning and disinfectant compositions comprise approximately 50% w/w to approximately 75% w/w of citric acid encapsulated by a binder; approximately 1% to approximately 5.5% w/w of sodium benzoate; and approximately 10% w/w to approximately 15% w/w of sodium lauryl sulfate. The solid compositions are dissolved in water to produce a disinfectant solution comprising approximately 1.2% w/v to approximately 2% w/v citric acid and approximately 0.083% w/v to approximately 0.15% w/v sodium benzoate. A 10 minute contact time with the disinfectant solution provides a 5 log.sub.10 reduction in Staphylococcus aureus on a surface.
