COMPOSITIONS AND SYSTEMS FOR DISINFECTION

A disinfectant system, comprising a first aqueous composition having a peracid reactant compound that is either a peroxide compound or an organic acid compound, and a second aqueous composition comprising the peracid reactant compound not selected for the first composition. Each composition is applied separately to, and combined upon, a surface to form a reaction layer, within which a peracid is formed in situ, disinfecting the surface. The compositions can have a flash point, surface tension, and vapor pressure compatible for application as a spray, mist, aerosol, or fog, and can be formulated with an alcohol blend that enables the reaction layer to completely evaporate from the surface after disinfection is complete. In use, the disinfectant systems disclosed herein have up 99.999% antimicrobial efficacy against organism such as Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonasaeruginosa, and Candida auris.

Mosquito attractant formulations and uses thereof

There is herein provided a mosquito attractant formulation comprising: (a) an aldehyde component; (b) a first monoterpene component; and (c) a second monoterpene component, wherein components (a) to (c) are defined in the description provided herein, 5 and products, uses and methods relating to the same. There is also herein provided the use of the compound HMBPP as a phagostimulant, and products and methods relating to the same.

Disinfecting device
11648328 · 2023-05-16 · ·

A device for production and use of a disinfectant. The device may be used to disinfect materials or objects exposed to viruses and/or bacteria. In particular, the device is capable of converting at least one first reagent such as an alcohol and at least one second reagent including an oxidant into an active disinfectant agent. A catalytic system is incorporated into the reaction vessel to produce the active disinfectant as needed for the disinfection process.
