The present invention relates to antimicrobial, disinfecting, and wound healing compositions and methods for producing and using the same. The compositions may comprise one or more of a peracid, a hydroperoxide, a bis(hydroperoxide), or an epoxide.

This disclosure relates to a method for the control or repellency of biting arthropods. The method comprises bringing the biting arthropods into contact with a biting arthropod repellent formulation. The biting arthropod repellent formulation comprises nootkatone in combination, or in synergistic combination, with skin or plant derived compounds and compounds structurally similar to them (e.g., ketones, cyclic ketones, esters, gamma or delta lactones, and branched and/or unsaturated carboxylic acids), and/or one or more repellents selected from the group consisting of DEET®, para-menthane-3,8-diol (PMD), Picaridin, ethyl 3-[acetyl(butyl)amino]propanoate (IR3535), and other nitrogen-containing repellents including amines, amides, and nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds. This disclosure also relates to a biting arthropod repellent formulation comprising nootkatone in combination, or in synergistic combination, with the skin or plant derived compounds and compounds structurally similar to them, and/or the one or more repellents.

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 present disclosure relates to methods and systems for making one or more antimicrobial compositions and/or one or more virucidal disinfectant compositions. Said methods and systems include exposing a vegetable oil composition to ozone gas to cause ozonolysis of on one or more unsaturated fatty acids present in the vegetable oil composition, thereby forming an ozonated vegetable oil composition and exposing the ozonated vegetable oil composition to a temperature greater than 60° C. while in contact with water to decompose one or more ozonide compounds and form a heat-treated, ozonated vegetable oil composition. The present disclosure also relates to one or more uses of said one or more antimicrobial compositions and/or one or more virucidal disinfectant compositions.
