The present invention relates to a cleaning liquid, in particular a cleaning liquid for cleaning surfaces and/or for sanitizing water.

The invention relates to a biocidal composition containing 5-chlorine-2-methylisothiazolin-3-one and at least one other component selected from the group consisting of 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one, 2-bromine-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol and zinc. The claimed biocidal composition is characterized in that it contains methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one in the region of between 0-2 wt. %, in relation to the total proportion of 5-chlorine-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-ones. The invention also relates to the use of the claimed biocidal compositions for conserving technical products.

Rat attractant compositions attractive to the rat species Rattus norvegicus are disclosed, which compositions are constituted of compounds found in the headspace volatiles of male urine odor or female urine odor. Said compositions are respectively termed male pheromone blend (MPB) and comprises 2-heptanone, 4-heptanone, 3-ethyl-2-heptanone, 2-octanone, 2-nonanone, and 4-nonanone in a ratio of 10:100:10:1:1:10 respectively, or female pheromone blend (FPB) and comprises 2-methyl-butyric acid, 3-methyl-butyric acid, heptanal, hexanoic acid, 2-phenylacetaldehyde, nonanal, and decanal in a ratio of 20:20:10:30:5:20:10. Devices including the rat attractant compositions, and methods of using said rat attractant compositions, are also disclosed.

Provided herein are screening methods for identifying compounds for use as an arthropod repellent based on the masking or inhibition of the detection of the skin odor by a cpA neuron. Provided herein are also screening methods for identifying compounds for use as an arthropod attractant based on activation of the cpA neuron. Further provided are one or more compounds identified using the screening methods described herein, and compositions containing such compounds.

The biocidal textile support includes bronopol in the dry state present on the surface of the support and having a contact biocidal action, the bronopol being linked to the support by a photo-crosslinkable or photo-polymerizable binder, and its use as an element of a device for protecting against biological risks. A biocidal suit or garment and a mask, preferably antibacterial or antiviral, including such a biocidal support, are also described.
