  • Patent number: 11286393
    Abstract: Disclosed are antimicrobial sacrificial floor coatings systems including an antimicrobial sacrificial floor coating composition capable of reducing and/or preventing gram positive and gram negative bacterial growth on floors. Also disclosed is an antimicrobial sacrificial floor coating remover being readily capable of removing the antimicrobial sacrificial floor coating as desired from previously treated flooring surfaces. In certain aspects, the antimicrobial sacrificial floor coatings can include a cationic acrylic polymer; a nonionic wax; and a cationic alkyl biguanide or salt thereof. The antimicrobial sacrificial floor coating may further include a cationic wax that further stabilizes the system during storage, application, and/or post-application to a floor surface.

  • Patent number: 6180585
    Abstract: Described is An aqueous disinfectant and hard surface cleaning composition comprising: an effective disinfecting amount of a quaternary ammonium compound; an effective amount of a spore forming microbial composition; and an effective water dispersing amount of a surfactant. The composition is used to clean a hard surface containing a diverse microbial flora. The composition cleans and disinfects by killing off undesirable microorganisms which may be causing offensive odors and leaves behind Bacillus spores which will then germinate and degrade any remaining ongoing residues without creating offensive odors.
