The use of an agent containing surfactant components chosen from sulfonic acids or sulfonates, alkylamine oxides, ethercarboxylic acids, and alkylether sulfates, in total amounts of 0.01 to 1 wt. %, preferably 0.05 to 0.5 wt. %, with respect to the entire agent, and also one or more percarboxylic acids chosen from a) those peracids or salts of peracids with general formula (I) R&#x2014;OC&#x2014;(CH)&#x2014;COH in which Ris hydrogen or an alkyl group with 1 to 4 carbon atoms and x is a number from 1 to 4, and/or b) phthalimido-percarboxylic acids (II), in which the percarboxylic acid segment contains 1 to 18 carbon atoms, and/or c) compounds of the formula (III) R&#x2014;COH in which Ris an is an alkyl or alkenyl group with 1 to 18 carbon atoms, for disinfection purposes in CIP processes.

Use of low foam percarboxylic acid based products containing surfactants for cip-disinfection

The present invention relates to the use of peracid esters for improving surface wetting during the disinfection of surfaces and to synergistic antimicrobial combinations of peracid esters with further components.

Peracids with good adhesion to surfaces

The anti-foaming preparations comprise aqueous formulations, which contain at least one substance, from the group of polyhydroxy compounds, non-ionic detergents and phosphoric acid esters and their salts, preferably alkyl polygluocosides, alkoxylated long-chain alcohols and an alkali salt of a phosphoric acid partial-ester. The particular advantage of said aqueous formulations is that they are stable when included in highly alkaline cleaning concentrates.

Anti-foaming preparation and use thereof

The invention relates to the use of a surface-active agent and to the use of cleaning agents obtained by dilution of said surface-active agent for removing silicone-containing deposits from surfaces.

Silicone remover

A method for cleaning returnable bottles and similar containers used in the food industry. The method uses an enzymatic solution during the cleaning process. The cleaning results are at least as good as conventional methods, without requiring an increase in the duration of cleaning. The method substantially reduces bottle corrosion and waste water pollution compared to conventional methods.

Method of cleaning returnable bottles

A method is provided for treating the foot or hooves of animals used for breeding that are kept in sheds, especially cattle and particularly dairy cattle. The method is characterized in that in a first phase, the feet or hooves of the animals are cleaned with water or a detergent containing soap or tensides, using an automatic spray system in order to remove all traces of excrement, especially manure or other dirt, for example straw, and then in a second phase, the previously cleaned feet or hooves are treated with a disinfectant by wetting or spraying.

Method for treating the hooves of mammals especially cattle

A stabilized liquid enzyme preparation containing a cleaning-active enzyme, a solvent selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, and mixtures thereof, and a stabilizer comprising a basic nitrogen compound selected from the group consisting of N,N-bis-(3-aminopropyl)-dodecyl amine, a salt of N,N-bis-(3-aminopropyl)-dodecyl amine, and mixtures thereof. Also, a method of cleaning an article by diluting the stabilized liquid enzyme preparation with water in a weight ratio of enzyme preparation to water of 1:500 to 1:5000 to form a cleaning solution, adding to the cleaning solution 0.01% to 0.2% by weight, based on the weight of cleaning solution, of a buffer concentrate to adjust the pH of the cleaning solution to 7 to 10; and contacting the article with a portion of the cleaning solution to effect cleaning thereof.

Liquid enzyme preparation and the use thereof

Film-building agent useful to protect against infections

This invention is directed to germicidal compositions comprising a germicidally effective amount of at least one alkyl monophosphonic acid having from 4 to 12 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain in admixture with one or more surfactants in acidic solution and to the use of such compositions in disinfecting surfaces.
