  • Mic reduction with lithium ions
    Patent number: 11553718
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for reducing the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of a biocide against at least one strain of bacteria and/or at least one strain of yeast and/or at least one strain of mould in an aqueous preparation. The invention further relates to the use of a water soluble source of lithium ions for reducing the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of a biocide against at least one strain of bacteria and/or at least one strain of yeast and/or at least one strain of mould in an aqueous preparation.

  • METAL OXIDES AND/OR HYDRATES THEREOF FOR STABILIZING AN AQUEOUS PREPARATION AGAINST MICROBIAL GROWTH
    Publication number: 20200054019
    Abstract: A process is described for stabilizing an aqueous preparation against microbial growth. Also described, is the aqueous preparation stabilized against microbial growth as well as the use of a source of at least one metal oxide and/or its hydrated form for reducing the amount of an antimicrobial agent against at least one strain of bacteria and/or at least one strain of yeast and/or at least one strain of mold in an aqueous preparation. The use of a composition including at least one antimicrobial agent and a source of at least one metal oxide and/or its hydrated form as an antimicrobial composition in an aqueous preparation, is also described.
