abstract |
The present invention relates to a topical antimicrobial composition containing an antimicrobial complex that provides sustained antimicrobial disinfecting action upon contact with microorganisms for prolonged periods, without the necessity for reapplication. The topical antimicrobial composition provides both initial and residual contact-killing disinfecting activity, and does not release its antimicrobial components into contacting liquids at levels that result in solution disinfection. |
