An alkaline detergent composition is provided including a source of alkalinity and an effective soil removing amount of a nonionic surfactant blend. The nonionic surfactant blend includes a nonionic surfactant having a hydrophobic and an (EO) group and a nonionic silicone surfactant. The detergent composition provides for the removal of waxy-fatty soil.

The invention relates to a A highly alkaline or mildly alkaline detergent composition having enhanced cleaning properties. The detergent which combines a source of alkalinity and with a blend of nonionic surfactants that enhances cleaning waxy-fatty soils. This blend of surfactants shows surprising cooperation in reducing surface tension and comprises a nonionic or amphoteric surfactant and a silicone containing surfactant.

A method of preventing growth of hairy warts and preventing hairy wart disease in dairy cattle by applying to a potentially infected area of the cattle, e.g. hooves, a solution comprising a peroxycarboxylic acid, e.g. of C.sub.2 -C.sub.18 carbon atoms or mixtures thereof, particularly peracetic acid, is described.

Use of peroxygen compounds in the control of hairy wart disease

Compositions for use as soil removing agents in the food processing industry are disclosed. Food soiled surfaces in food manufacturing and preparation areas can be cleaned. The compositions are preferably manufactured in the form of a solid block or powder concentrate which is diluted with water and used. The cleaning materials are made in a one or two part system which are diluted with a diluent source and mixed prior to use. The products contain high quality cleaning compositions and use a variety of active ingredients. The preferred materials, in a one or two part system, contain detergent compositions, enzymes that degrade food compositions, surfactants, low alkaline builders, water conditioning (softening) agents, and optionally a variety of formulary adjuvants depending on product form.

Proteolytic enzyme cleaner

A protective aqueous antimicrobial film forming composition that can be applied to dairy animals to form a protective film. The film can be used to reduce the incidence of both contagious and environmental mastitis in dairy herds and can be formed from an aqueous composition that can contain a nonionic iodine complex, a polyvinyl alcohol composition, having a degree of hydrolysis greater than 92%, preferably greater than 98%, and a thickener. The aqueous mixture can be applied to udder and teats of dairy herds to form a protective coating that can prevent infection from staphlococcus, streptococcus, klebsiella and other pathogens. The film can be removed using water in a convenient short period of time permitting efficient milking operations. After milking, the composition can be reapplied to the herd and can protect the herd from mastitis until the herd is again milked. The material of the invention has the property that after application and drying both films and plugs of the protective coating is softened and removed even in cold water in a convenient time frame.

Iodine barrier teat dip

The stability of polyvinyl films used to contain detersive systems may be enhanced by the use of a barrier coating composition to separate the film degrading components, i.e., acids, bases, and halogens, from these films. The barrier coatings may either encapsulate the individual film degrading components, or they may coat the entire detersive system.
