Provided herein are methods and compositions for the reduction of microbial contamination of animal carcasses, including fowl, and food products with carbonic acid-based compositions.

Antimicrobial treatment of animal carcasses and food products

Provided herein are methods and compositions for water disinfection. The methods and compositions, which can include a peracid and a source of copper ions, are useful for treatment of water contaminated with recalcitrant microbes.

Disinfection method for water and wastewater

Provided herein are methods and compositions for the reduction of endospore contamination of a substrate with percarboxylic acid-based compositions. The methods can include the step of continuously monitoring the oxidation-reduction potential of the percarboxylic acid-based compositions.

Sporicidal methods and compositions

Provided herein are methods and compositions for reducing the level of a cyanotoxin in cyanotoxin contaminated-water. The electrolytic destruction methods can include contacting the contaminated water with an electrochemical cell in the presence of a magnesium salt and applying an electrical current to the water for a time and in an amount sufficient to oxidize the cyanotoxin. The methods are useful for treatment of lake water, reservoir water, pond water, river water, or irrigation water and any water that serves as a source of drinking water.

Treatment of cyanotoxin-containing water

The present invention relates to compositions and formulations for soil disinfection against a wide spectrum of plant pathogens and pests. More particularly, the formulation comprising (i) peracids, such as peracetic acid and an GO anionic surfactant, such as capryleth-9 carboxylic acid is synergistically effective in treatment of soil to control plant parasitic nematodes and soil-borne plant pathogens such as bacteria, spores and fungi.

Soil treatment

A method of sterilizing a material, said method comprising the steps of: a) providing a sterilizing composition comprising (i) peracetic acid and (ii) a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of citric acid, isocitric acid, aconitic acid and propane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid; b) introducing such sterilizing composition into a hot gaseous stream to produce a peracetic acid vapor; and c) contacting such peracetic acid vapor with the material to be sterilized. The use of such an organic acid stabilizer results in an unexpected reduction in the amount of residue deposited on the heating surface employed to vaporize the sterilizing composition.
