Abstract: Deodorant compositions comprise glycerin monoalkyl ethers of the formula ##STR1## in which R is a branched or unbranched C.sub.6 -C.sub.18 alkyl in combination with other deodorant ingredients. Preferably R is C.sub.8 to C.sub.12 alkyl; more particularly, C.sub.8 alkyl; and most preferably, 2-ethylhexyl.

Abstract: The invention relates to a disinfectant concentrate which includes amine and alcohol and is characterized in that the alcohol component includes at least one aromatic alcohol and the amine component includes at least one tertiary alkyl amine which is free of hydroxyl groups. It is also relates to a disinfectant which is preparable from the disinfectant concentrate, and to the use of the disinfectant concentrate or disinfectant as a bactericide, in particular a Mycobactericide, fungicide or virucide.

Abstract: The use of carboxylic acids for controlling mycobacteria is described. The carboxylic acids contain compounds with the general formula: ##STR1## in which A is a substituted or unsubstituted Cs-Clo aryl group, A containing no nitrogen atom,R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently of one other are hydrogen or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl group,m is 0 or 1 andn is a number from 0 to 5,and no alkyl sulphonates or alkyl sulphates are present.Said active ingredients may be used in the form of aqueous and/or alcoholic ready-for-use solutions or may be present in the form of concentrates, powders or granular products or applied to a support such as a cloth. Formulations based on said carboxylic acids may also contain other bactericidal active ingredients, synergistic effects arising in some cases.
