  • Publication number: 20140057987
    Abstract: Compositions are provided that comprise a disinfectant, a pH indicator dye, and an alkaline substance. The pH indicator dye expresses a color when initially sprayed, but loses or changes color once sprayed. The compositions may be used to disinfect surfaces, and the pH indicator dye indicates what surface has been disinfected and ensures that a sufficient period of time has passed to disinfect the surface. Dispensing systems that are not fully air tight are provided for containing and dispensing the composition.

  • Patent number: 4942679
    Abstract: A styled shoe construction designed for comfort including a flexible, durable, synthetic outsole member having a narrow heel or tongue portion received in the recess of a styled leather heel. The shoe construction further includes a synthetic fiberboard insole member in which its backpart area is substantially rigid while its forepart area is substantially flexible, is lightweight, breathable, and water-absorptive, and is cement-lasted between the inturned marginal edges of a styled leather upper and the top surfaces of the marginal edges of the outsole member and heel. A highly resilient elongated urethane foam bottom filler is received within the cavity between the insole member and the outsole member, and a heel cushion member preferably of the same material as the bottom filler is secured to the top backpart surface of the insole member.
