Publication number: 20200315999Abstract: A germicidal composition comprising at least one fast-acting germicidal agent and at least one slow-acting germicidal agent is provided. The use of a dual germicide system permits the composition to provide an immediate antimicrobial effect when applied to an animal's skin, particularly, a bovine teat, and a residual antimicrobial effect for several hours after application. A method for testing this residual antimicrobial effect is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2017Publication date: October 8, 2020Inventors: Nicoleta Camelia Traistaru, Amanda Elizabeth Faltynowski, Isha Mineshkumar Patel, Carolina Mateus, Barend Jongman, Maria Buchalova, Eli Rauer, Thomas C. Hemling

Publication number: 20180187129Abstract: Acid detergent compositions, concentrates and use solutions prepared from the concentrates and methods of using the same are provided. The acid detergent compositions are particularly suited for use in removing soils, especially milk soils, from clean-in-place systems, such as those commonly used in the dairy and food processing industries. The detergent compositions comprise an acidic component including an inorganic or alkanesulfonic acid and a blend of surfactants to provide high cleaning efficiency and low foam generation. The acid detergent compositions optionally comprise an antimicrobial agent to impart a sanitization functionality to the detergent.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 6, 2016Publication date: July 5, 2018Inventors: Camelia Traistaru, Thomas C. Hemling, James Chapman

Patent number: 9750755Abstract: A liquid antimicrobial composition comprising an organic acid and one or more anionic surfactants is disclosed. In one embodiment, the organic acid is lactic acid and the anionic surfactant is sodium octane sulfonate. In a preferred embodiment, the antimicrobial solution is formulated as a teat dip for lactating animals, particularly cows. In other embodiments, the antimicrobial compositions may be used in personal care, hard surface care including hard surface disinfection in households, food processing, hospitals, restaurants, hotels, showers, or topically as hand soaps, surgical scrubs, and hoof disease mitigators.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2015Date of Patent: September 5, 2017Assignee: DeLaval Holding ABInventors: Fahim U. Ahmed, Alex Skender, Chris Foret, Thomas C. Hemling, N. Camelia Traistaru

Patent number: 8778369Abstract: Long-lasting persistent, uniform, film-forming skin protecting compositions provide long-lasting persistent barrier films when applied to skin. The compositions have particular utility as barrier teat dips for protecting cows against mastitis and as wound care agents. A barrier film-forming agent is selected from pullulan, pullulan derivatives and combinations thereof. The barrier film-forming agent is stably solubilized in a solvent that dries to form the long-lasting, persistent, uniform film over the animal skin. The compositions may contain additives, such as antimicrobial agents that kill microorganisms.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2009Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: DeLaval Holding ABInventors: Fahim U. Ahmed, N. Camelia Traistaru

Patent number: 8569373Abstract: Germicidal compositions containing at least one carboxylic acid combined with at least one nonionic or anionic surfactant, and methods of using the compositions for treatment or prevention of infectious hoof diseases are disclosed. The germicidal compositions remain active in the presence of manure, which eliminates the need to pre-clean the hooves before use. The compositions have particular utility for treating or preventing papillomatous digital dermatitis, interdigital phlegmon, interdigital dermatitis, laminitis, white line disease, heel erosion and other hoof diseases.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2007Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: DeLaval Holding ABInventors: Chris Foret, Alex Skender, Fahim Ahmed, Thomas C. Hemling, N. Camelia Traistaru

Publication number: 20130065865Abstract: A long-lasting persistent, uniform film-forming skin protecting germicidal composition provides a long-lasting persistent barrier film when applied to skin. The compositions have particular utility as barrier teat dips for protecting cows against mastitis. A barrier film-forming agent is selected from the modified or hydrolyzed polysaccharides, particularly a hydrolyzed or modified starch, such as dextrin and maltodextrin. The barrier film-forming agent is stably solubilized in a solvent that dries to form the long-lasting persistent uniform film over the animal skin. The compositions also contain antimicrobial agents that fight against microbes that manage to penetrate the protective barrier film. Particularly, advantageous is that all the materials used are safe food additive and cost effective over the traditional barrier film forming agents.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2012Publication date: March 14, 2013Applicant: DELAVAL HOLDING ABInventors: Fahim U. Ahmed, N. Camelia Traistaru, Lieven Uytterhaegen
