A surface-active composition consisting essentially of (a) a compound having the structure: ##STR1## wherein A is either coco or tallow, R is either C.sub.2 H.sub.4 or C.sub.3 H.sub.6 and X is either OH or NH.sub.2, and wherein the arrow indicates a semi-polar bond, and (b) another surface-active agent selected from the group consisting of anionic, cationic and non-ionic surface active agents.

Imidazoline oxides

This invention relates to amphoteric surface-active agents which have extremely powerful inhibitory action against Gram positive bacteria and which are substantially free from metal halide, and, particularly, sodium chloride. These compounds have the general structure: ##EQU1## wherein R is a straight chain alkyl having from 6 to 16 carbon atoms, R' is a lower alkyl, and M is either hydrogen, an alkali metal or an alkylolamine.

Amphoteric surface-active agents

A surface-active composition consisting essentially of (a) a compound having the structure: ##EQU1## wherein R is a member of the group consisting of C.sub.2 H.sub.4 and C.sub.3 H.sub.6 and X is a member of the group consisting of OH and NH.sub.2, and (b) another surface-active agent selected from the group consisting of anionic, cationic and non-ionic surface active agents.
