Abstract

Abstract A novel antimicrobial, aromatic and deodorizing agent composition and a method of reducing microbial concentration or inhibiting microbial growth using the composition are provided, which composition comprises a zeolote or porous glass carrier and a saturated monoterpene hydroperoxide as an active ingredient, the monoterpene hydroperoxide preferably selected from pinane hydroperoxide, thujane hydroperoxide, carane hydroperoxide, bornane hydroperoxide, paramenthane hydroperoxide, metamenthane hydroperoxide, and mixtures of the foregoing, etc.
