Abstract: Perfume ingredients have been investigated and classified for their effectiveness in detaching biofilms from surfaces. Based on this classification, perfume compositions that are effective in assisting biofilm detachment can be formulated, whilst also allowing a degree of freedom in formulation that permits consideration of the hedonic properties of the composition. The compositions can be used in a wide range of perfumed consumer products, such as personal, domestic and industrial products, e.g. hard surface cleaning products, dental care products, and deodorant products.

Abstract: A liquid dispensing device for dispensing a liquid into the surrounding atmosphere employs a forced airflow through a small cross-section outlet nozzle (48) to draw the liquid from an adjacent exit nozzle (50) into the airflow. The air outlet nozzle preferably has a cross-section less than that of the liquid exit nozzle. The liquid exit nozzle may partially overlie the airflow path from the air outlet nozzle. The nozzle may be formed in or carried by a unit (24) having sealed connections with the airflow source (16) and a container holding the liquid.
