Abstract: A disinfectant composition that is capable of inactivating non-enveloped viruses as well as other microorganisms, such as gram negative and gram positive bacteria, fungi, parasites, enveloped viruses, etc., is provided. Through selective control over the nature of the acid(s) employed and the overall pH level, the present inventors have discovered that the composition can achieve rapid antiviral efficacy, particularly against non-enveloped viruses. Once applied to a surface (e.g., hard surface), the disinfectant composition forms a film that remains capable of providing residual antiviral activity. Notably, the present inventors have discovered that the use of a vinylpyrrolidone copolymer in combination with a polyquaternary ammonium polymer and cationic surfactant can have a synergistic effect on the stability of the film such that it can also achieve long-term, residual antiviral activity.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions, particularly compositions useful in maintaining and supporting healthy microflora in the female urogenital tract which could lead to inhibition of vaginal infections, as well as methods of treating and preventing vaginal infections. Compositions useful in supporting healthy microflora, disclosed herein, generally include a first therapeutic agent including ? methyl-D glucoside and a second therapeutic agent including a nitrogen containing compound at a therapeutic amount. In some embodiments, the nitrogen containing compound can be, for example, L-Cysteine, Cytidine, D-Asparagine, Pyrimidine, D-Alanine, D-Glucosamine HCL, and N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine.

Abstract: Methods for archiving and reconstituting a microbiome are disclosed. A method for archiving a microbiome can include collecting a sample including a microbial community defining the microbiome. The method can also include expanding the microbial community in the sample and preserving the sample to provide a preserved sample. Packaging the preserved sample to archive the microbiome can also form part of the method of archiving the microbiome.
