Abstract
What is provided herein is a method for reducing the microbial content of surfaces which comprises contacting said surface with a microbiocidal amount of a substantially anhydrous complex of PVP and H.sub.2 O.sub.2.
Claims29
A method for reducing the microbial content of surfaces which comprises contacting said surface with a microbiocidal amount of a stable complex of PVP and H.sub.2 O.sub.2 containing between about 3 and 24% by weight of H.sub.2 O.sub.2 in an anhydrous organic solvent which is obtained directly as a uniform, free-flowing, fine white powder by reaction between PVP and H.sub.2 O.sub.2 in substantially the same weight ratio as predetermined for the complex.
