Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 38 words
A compound or a mixture of compounds formed by the reaction of equimolar proportions of 1,3-bis-dimethylamino-2-propanol and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol, the reaction being effected at a temperature of about 40° to about 90° C for about 2 to 12 hours.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 38 words
A compound or a mixture of compounds formed by the reaction of equimolar proportions of 1,3-bis-dimethylamino-2-propanol and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol, the reaction being effected at a temperature of about 40° to about 90° C for about 2 to 12 hours.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
An antibacterial composition comprising an aqueous solution containing an effective amount of a compound or mixture of compounds formed by the reaction of equimolar proportions of 1,3-bis-dimethylamino-2-propanol and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol, the reaction being effected at a temperature of about 40° to about 90° C for about 2 to 12 hours.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 49 words
An antibacterial composition comprising an aqueous solution containing an effective amount of a compound or mixture of compounds formed by the reaction of equimolar proportions of 1,3-bis-dimethylamino-2-propanol and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol, the reaction being effected at a temperature of about 40° to about 90° C for about 2 to 12 hours.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein said compound or mixture of compounds is present in a concentration of at least 40 ppm.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 53 words
A method of inhibiting bacteria which comprises applying to said bacteria an antibacterially effective amount of a compound or mixture of compounds formed by the reaction of equimolar proportions of 1,3-bis-dimethylamino-2-propanol and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol, the reaction being effected at a temperature of about 40° to about 90° C for about 2 to 12 hours.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 53 words
A method of inhibiting bacteria which comprises applying to said bacteria an antibacterially effective amount of a compound or mixture of compounds formed by the reaction of equimolar proportions of 1,3-bis-dimethylamino-2-propanol and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol, the reaction being effected at a temperature of about 40° to about 90° C for about 2 to 12 hours.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 42 words
The method of claim 4 wherein the bacteria is Aerobacter aerogenes and wherein the amount of said compound or mixture of compounds is at least 40 ppm of a total treating composition comprising said compound or mixture of compounds and a carrier.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 43 words
The method of claim 4 wherein the bacteria is a Pseudomonas aeruginosa and wherein the amount of said compound or mixture of compounds is at least 50 ppm of a total treating composition comprising said compound or mixture of compounds and a carrier.
