The invention meets the needs above by providing a surfactant system, mixture or blend that can be used as a part of a soaking composition. The surfactant system is capable of forming emulsions with, and thus removing, oily and greasy stains. In a preferred embodiment the surfactant compositions of the invention can remove non-trans fat and fatty acid stains. The invention involves foaming soaking compositions that have some or part of the anionic surfactant present in the same replaced with an extended chain anionic surfactant.

Lavatory treatment devices comprise a lavatory treatment composition which includes: up to 50% wt. of an adhesion promoter constituent based on a fatty alcohol polyglycol ether as may be represented by the following structural formula (I):
ROCH.sub.2CH.sub.2O.sub.nH(I)
within which, R is an C.sub.12-C.sub.24 aliphatic mono- or poly-alkene moiety, and n has a value of from 1 to 50; 0.01-25% wt. of an organic solvent constituent, which is liquid at room temperature (20 C.); 0.1-25% wt. of a detersive surfactant constituent; optionally a co-adhesion promoter constituent, preferably based on one or more oxyalkylenated compounds; further optionally one or more further optional constituents which may impart a further aesthetic or technical benefit to the said lavatory treatment compositions; and, to 100% wt. of water. Preferably the lavatory treatment compositions of the lavatory treatment devices are ringing gels.

A detergent composition having a) from about 10% to about 60%, by weight of the composition, of a surfactant system wherein the surfactant system includes: i) at least 35%, by weight of the surfactant system, of nonionic surfactant and ii) from 5% to about 20%, by weight of the surfactant system, of amine oxide.

The invention relates to drain cleaning compositions including relatively high concentrations of a hypochlorite oxidizing agent and a hydroxide (e.g., 4 to 12% and 2.5 to 10%, respectively. The composition further includes a surfactant (e.g., a surfactant blend, water, and exhibits a very high pH (e.g., at least 13). The composition is monophasic, even at high oxidizing and hydroxide concentrations. The surfactant may include a blend of an uncharged surfactant (e.g., an amphoteric surfactant or nonionic surfactant) and a charged surfactant (e.g., anionic, cationic, or a surfactant that becomes so under the high pH conditions of the composition). The ratio of charged to uncharged surfactant may be at least 1:10, e.g., from 1:10 to about 1:50.

Generally, the present disclosure is directed to single dose, or unitary disinfecting concentrates that are stable in a dissolvable container. The disinfecting concentrate includes at least one biodegradable carboxylic acid and at least one anionic surfactant, and is stable for at least one week at 54 C. as measured according to EPA storage stability test protocol (830.6317). While exhibiting good stability, the disinfecting concentrate is also able to dissolve quickly in water, and, once diluted, exhibits a micro efficacy against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, or both Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus at 3 minute contact time according to
