An antibacterial cleaning composition comprising about 0.05 to about 1 wt. % of a cationic polymer having a charge density of 0.0025 or higher, about 0.2 to about 10 wt. % of an alkylpolyglucoside having a formula: R--O(-G).sub.n wherein R is an alkyl group having from about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms, G is a saccharide residue having 5 or 6 carbon atoms and n is a number from 1-10, about 0.2 to about 5% of a zwitterionic surfactant and about 0.2 to about 5 wt. % of a biquanide compound, the composition having a pH of 7.5 or greater.

Ultramild antibacterial cleaning composition for frequent use

Liquid skin cleansing compositions comprising (1) mild surfactant systems; (2) 0.5% to 9% by wt. of a hydroxy carboxylic compound or compounds which buffer the pH of the composition; (3) an antibacterial agent and (4) 1% to 99% water to potentiate the bactericidal activity are provided.

Mild antimicrobial liquid cleansing formulations comprising hydroxy acid

An antibacterial cleaning composition is described which has about 0.05 to about 1 wt. % of a cationic polymer having a charge density of 0.0025 or higher, about 0.2 to about 5% of a zwitterionic surfactant, about 0.2 to about 5 wt. % of at least one biguanide compound, and optionally a nonionic surfactant and a polymeric biocide compound. The composition has a pH of 7.5 or greater.

The present invention relates to liquid skin cleansing compositions comprising (1) mild surfactant systems; (2) 0.1 to 10% by wt. of a polyvalent cation or cations selected from the group consisting of zinc, copper, tin, aluminum cobalt, nickel, chromium, titanium and/or manganese and mixture thereof; and (3) 1% to 99% water wherein said cation or cations provide antibacterial activity. In a second embodiment of the invention, the cation or cations potentiates antibacterial effect in compositions already containing an antibacterial agent. In a third embodiment, the invention relates to a method of enhancing antibacterial effect using these polyvalent cation or cations.

Mild antimicrobial liquid cleansing formulations comprising buffering

A method and composition for controlling calculus formation in the mouth is reported based upon a combination of a low and high molecular weight polymer. The first polymer is a synthetic anionic polymer having a molecular weight of at least 4000. The second polymer has a molecular weight up to about 2500 and is formed from a mixture of mono- and di- carboxylic vinyl monomers reacted with hypophosphite groups.
