A non-toxic antimicrobial surface sanitizer composition comprising a water-miscible alcohol, water, a weak acid and a multivalent cation (e.g., metal ion or metal compound). The composition may also include one or more of an emollient, oxidative agent, humectant, lubricant, plant-derived alkene, antimicrobial component or plant-derived essential oil. These compositions can be formulated as solutions for sanitizing hard surfaces such as countertops and floors, or as solutions/gels for application to animal skin. |
