Abstract

See full text

Formulations and wipes for imparting a sporicide to a surface are disclosed herein. Unexpectedly, a set of naturally derived ingredients have been found to combat and treat spore-based bacteria without the use of harsh chemicals. To achieve the sporicidal efficacy of the product, botanical extracts and/or botanical-derived ingredients have been incorporated into a sporicidal formulation. Example botanical extracts that demonstrated sporicidal activity include: Garcinia morella, Setaria italica, Salvia miltiorrhiza, and Psoralea corylifolia. An example botanical-derived ingredient that demonstrated sporicidal activity included gambogic acid. Unexpectedly, use of these botanicals and/or botanical-derived ingredients on skin provided a sporicidal benefit. Other botanicals and/or botanical extracts were not found to have sporicidal efficacy.
