Abstract
Nontoxic biocompatible deodorizing compositions are essentially free of nonbiocompatible components and comprise, by volume, from about 0.05 to about 0.5 percent of an odor elimination agent, in combination with a physiologically compatible buffering agent, a wetting agent and a polar diluent. The compositions are suitable dispensed from a spray dispenser and are adapted for reducing malodors in environments where contact of the compositions with humans or animals having compromised or reduced chemical or microbiological resistance is anticipated or not easily prevented, for example in operating rooms, intensive care units, neonatal nurseries, and additional health care facilities.
