Abstract
A composition comprising a chelate-based ternary complex is useful for: (1) at least in-part disabling existing populations of microorganisms; and (2) at least in-part inhibiting growth of new microorganism populations. The chelate-based ternary complex comprises a hydrogen peroxide component, a plant compatible growth promoter component and a divalent zinc ion component. The plant compatible growth promoter component may comprise a urea component or a gluconate component or a salicylate component.
Claims23
A composition comprising a chelate-based ternary complex.
A method for preparing a composition comprising mixing together within an aqueous solution three components to provide a chelate-based ternary complex;
- and
- adjusting as needed the pH of the solution to provide a pH within a specific range.
A method comprising:
- treating a surface of a structure with a composition, wherein the composition comprises a chelate-based ternary complex to at least either;
- disabling at least a portion of a microorganism population formed upon the structure;
- and
- inhibiting at least in-part the growth of a microorganism population upon the structure.
