Abstract

See full text

Low levels of quaternary ammonium compounds are effective antimicrobial agents in drinking water and potentiate the antimicrobial power of organic acids used as antimicrobials for such purposes. The method is effective against both Gram (-) and Gram (+) bacteria, including but not limited to, Salmonella sp., E. coli, Campylobacter sp. as Staphylococcus sp. and Listeria sp. The combination of quaternary ammonium compounds and one or more organic acids can also be effectively used as antimicrobial washes for fruits, vegetables, meat, and animal carcasses.
