Abstract: In an embodiment, the present disclosure relates to a two-part oral rinse composition having a first rinse portion and a second rinse portion. In some embodiments, the first mouth rinse portion includes sodium chlorite (NaClO2) in a first solution. In some embodiments, the second mouth rinse portion includes a sugar alcohol, a licorice root extract, and an enzyme in a second solution. In some embodiments, the enzyme can include, without limitation bromelain, actinidin, ficin, papain, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the first solution has a pH in a range of approximately 8.0 to approximately 12. In some embodiments, the second solution has a pH in a range of approximately 5.0 to approximately 6.5.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to antimicrobial compositions that are non-toxic to mammals and plants, and are highly effective against a broad spectrum of detrimental pathogenic microorganisms. The antimicrobial compositions contain at least one zinc compound that is microbicidal to at least one microorganism. The antimicrobial compositions of the invention can be diluted in suitable proportions into suitable solvents to produce the desired dosages for each individual application. The antimicrobial compositions can be applied by conventional methods, e.g., spraying, soaking, fogging, impregnation, and the like. The compositions can also be used as preservatives. The antimicrobial compositions can also be made as gels or solids in different forms by using techniques available to those skilled in the art.
