Abstract: Static fluid disinfecting system and related methods. Implementations of a method of disinfecting a fluid include statically contacting a fluid included in in a container with an open-celled foam where the open-celled foam is coated with a quaternary organosilane coating produced from a quaternary ammonium organosilane reagent where the fluid contains one or more microorganisms.

Abstract: A method for application to the skin of aqueous compositions containing antimicrobial organosilane quaternary ammonium compounds, which remain on the skin, are substantive to it and reduce or eliminate bacteria, viruses and fungi present and prevent future contamination by their presence and substantive character. All formulations are aqueous solutions which may be scented and/or colored and all contain a water soluble, organosilicon quaternary ammonium compound or mixture thereof; specifically 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-propyloctadecyl-dimethyl ammonium chloride or 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyldidecylmethyl ammonium chloride and the trisilanol, polysiloxanol and water soluble polysiloxane derivatives thereof.
