Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods for disinfecting, sterilizing, and/or sanitizing a surface associated with human or veterinary medical use, pharmaceutical manufacturing, or cosmetic manufacturing. The methods include contacting a surface with a peracid-containing composition and a peracetic acid (PAA) boosting composition. The methods may be useful for deactivating, removing, and/preventing a virus, an endospore, a bacterium, and combinations thereof.

Abstract: Aqueous compositions having an acidic pH comprise a primary organic acid, an ancillary organic acid that is different from the primary organic acid and a biodispersant. The aqueous compositions can be added to peracid containing disinfectant/sanitizer solutions to increase efficacy of peracids contained therein against microorganisms and/or biofilms.

Abstract: A compact functionally rich timeline bar is embedded within an e-mail application window so that time-related information, such as calendar events, can be viewed and managed from within the e-mail window. The timeline bar consumes a small area of the e-mail window while presenting an optimal amount of information without interfering with the primary tasks regarding the e-mail application. The timeline bar displays as much of a string of calendar events as will fit in the timeline bar, and presents mechanisms with which a user can scroll forward and backward through the string of calendar events and can jump to particular dates within the string of events. Various presentations and operations are provided when a user hovers over corresponding features of the timeline bar, and various “drag-and-drop” operations are provided to initiate calendar event scheduling when a user drags-and-drops entities from other applications onto a feature of the timeline bar.
