Abstract: The present invention is drawn to dispensing devices and systems which can be used to store and/or dispense a disinfectant solution. The device can include a first compartment and a second compartment. The first compartment can include a first liquid composition, which includes a transition metal or alloy thereof. The second compartment is separated from the first compartment and can contain a second liquid composition that includes a peroxygen. The first and second liquid compositions are formulated to be combined so as to yield a resultant disinfectant solution. The disinfectant solution can be used to disinfect a variety of surfaces and even liquid compositions.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to disinfectant systems and methods which can be used to produce a disinfectant solution. The system can include a first liquid composition and a second liquid composition. The first liquid composition comprises from 0.0005 ppm to 100,000 ppm by weight of a transition metal or alloy and an alcohol, and the second liquid composition comprises water and a peroxygen compound. The first and second liquid compositions are formulated to be combined so as to yield a resultant disinfectant solution. The disinfectant solution can be used to disinfect a variety of surfaces and even liquid compositions.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to methods of treating disease or injury. In particular, the invention provides methods for treating viral infections, bacterial infections, fungal infections, and cancerous tissue. The methods include the administration of an aqueous composition that can comprise an aqueous vehicle, including water, from 0.0001 wt % to 10.0 wt % of a peroxygen, and optionally, an alcohol. Additionally, from 0.0001 ppm to 50,000 ppm by weight of a transition metal based on the aqueous vehicle content can also be present. Alternatively or additionally, the transition metal can be in the form of a colloidal transition metal, such as colloidal silver or alloy thereof.

Alternatively or additionally, the transition metal can be in the form of a colloidal transition metal, such as colloidal silver or alloy thereof.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to methods and compositions for use in partially or fully decontaminating surfaces which have been contaminated with chemical or biological warfare agents. The invention includes contacting the contaminated surface with a composition capable of ameliorating the negative effects caused by the warfare agent. In one embodiment, the composition includes an aqueous vehicle of water and from 0.001 wt % to 40.0 wt % of a peroxygen. Additionally, the composition can include from 0.001 ppm to 50,000 ppm by weight of a transition metal based on the aqueous vehicle content. Optionally, an alcohol can be included in the composition. In one embodiment, the transition metal can be in the form of a colloidal transition metal, such as colloidal silver.

Abstract: The present invention is drawn to disinfectant or sterilant compositions, which are human safe, e.g., food grade or food safe. In one embodiment, an aqueous disinfectant or sterilant composition can comprise an aqueous vehicle, including water, from 0.001 wt % to 50 wt % of a peracid, and from 0.001 wt % to 25 wt % of a peroxide. Additionally, from 0.001 ppm to 50,000 ppm by weight of a transition metal based on the aqueous vehicle content can also be present. The composition can be formulated to include only food-grade ingredients. Alternatively or additionally, the transition metal can be in the form of a colloidal transition metal.
