Patent Images
1. A antimicrobial sanitizer composition having a pH of 4 or less, said composition consisting essentially of:
- a diluent and an antimicrobial agent, said agent consisting essentially of;
(a) about 0.9 wt-% to 2.5 wt-% of lactic acid; and
(b) about 0.25 wt-% to 3 wt-% hydrogen peroxide;
wherein after contact with a surface, said composition leaves a noncontaminating residue.

Abstract
An antimicrobial surface sanitizing composition comprising a major portion of diluent and an active antimicrobial agent, said agent comprising an antimicrobial effective amount of an alpha-hydroxy substituted mono- or di-carboxylic acid, and an antimicrobial effective amount of hydrogen peroxide, wherein after contact with the intended surface said antimicrobial composition leaves a noncontaminating residue upon that surface.

20. A method of using a sanitizing mammalian teat dip composition having a pH of 4 or less, said composition consisting essentially of a diluent, and an antimicrobial agent, said agent comprising about 0.9 wt-% to 2.5 wt-% lactic acid, about 0.25 wt-% to 3 wt-% hydrogen peroxide, and about 0.1 wt-% to 1 wt-% of a stabilizing agent wherein upon application to the intended surface said composition leaves a noncontaminating residue, said method comprising the step of applying said composition to the surface of application for a sufficient time period to result in sanitization of the surface.
