Non-limiting cleaning compositions may include a mix of enzymes including dispersins and specific amylases or mannanases. Said compositions may be used in cleaning processes and/or for cleaning of items, such as textiles, as well as methods of using said compositions for removal or reduction of organic stains.

The disclosure provides compositions and methods for making a colorized solution of an aqueous disinfectant that is both stable in bulk solution and will fade to clear within a predetermined period of time after being applied to a surface, for example as a spray or film. The compositions and methods described here allow an end user to visualize both the extent of coverage and the duration of contact of the disinfectant with the surface, thereby providing more efficient disinfection of the surface.

A new composition and method for cleaning hair grooming implements is provided. The composition comprises about 1.1% Sodium Hypochlorite, about 2.5% Sodium Hydroxide, about 0.5% Lithium Perchlorate and about 95.9% water. A concentrated version of the solution may be formed and later diluted for use. The addition of surfactant to the solution increases stability and efficiency.

The invention relates to compositions and methods of treatment employing compositions comprising polyelectrolyte complexes. The compositions include a water-soluble first polyelectrolyte bearing a net cationic charge or capable of developing a net cationic charge and a water-soluble second polyelectrolyte bearing a net anionic charge or capable of developing a net anionic charge. The total polyelectrolyte concentration of the first solution is at least 110 millimolar. The composition is free of coacervates, precipitates, latex particles, synthetic block copolymers, silicone copolymers, cross-linked poly(acrylic) and cross-linked water-soluble polyelectrolyte. The composition may be a concentrate, to be diluted prior to use to treat a surface.

Sanitizing and disinfecting substrates of a nonwoven fabric material are loaded with an HOCl solution having a FAC concentration from about 25 ppm to about 750 ppm and a potential of hydrogen (pH) from about 4.5 pH to about 7.5 pH. The substrate may be a synthetic nonwoven fabric laminate having outer layers of one or more Spunbond synthetic fibers and an inner layer of polyester (PET) or pulp. Alternatively, the substrate may be an organic nonwoven fabric formed from one or more layers of cellulosic fibers. The layers may be bonded together by adhesive bonding, chemical bonding or thermal bonding. The substrates may be disposed within a container for storing and subsequently dispensing the substrates. The substrates may be pre-moistened and disposed within the container, or alternatively, disposed within the container and subsequently moistened with the HOCl solution.

Methods for disinfecting a surface are provided which include contacting a surface with a solution comprising Fe(VI)O.sub.4.sup.2−, thereby disinfecting the surfaces. In some cases, the surface to be contacted with the solution is in a space suitable for human occupancy and the surface is arranged in the ambient of the space. In addition, solutions comprising Fe(VI)O.sub.4.sup.2− are provided. The solutions may additionally include a hypohalite salt and a surfactant.

Disclosed are devices, systems, and methods for producing broad spectrum disinfectants, sanitizers, cleaner and deodorizers using chlorine dioxide compositions, and more particularly, to methods for producing chlorine dioxide compositions having improved long term stability by the proper choice of pH and through the careful choice of other product formula ingredients.

The invention provides to a powdered composition of additives and a method of use thereof for increasing the visibility, potency and coverage of disinfectant solutions, such as bleach.
