Abstract

Disclosed are antimicrobial compositions for treating poultry and meat to substantially eliminate bacteria and microorganism harmful to human. The compositions include various combinations of an aliphatic heteroaryl salt, an aliphatic benzylalkyl ammonium salt, a dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt, a tetraalkyl ammonium salt and/or trichloromelamine.

       8 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein the aliphatic benzylalkyl ammonium salt is present and comprises alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride and the tetraalkyl ammonium is present and comprises cetyl trimethyl ammnonium chloride.  
   
   
       9 . A method for making an antimicrobial composition, comprising: admixing in any order an any two components selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic heteroaryl salt, trichloromelamine, aliphatic benzylalkyl ammonium salt, dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt, and tetraalkyl ammonium salt.  
   
   
       10 . The composition prepared by the method of  claim 9 .

 a. aliphatic heteroaryl salt;    b. trichloromelamine; and    c. an ammonium salt selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic benzylalkyl ammonium salt, a dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt, and a tetraalkyl ammonium salt,    wherein when the ammonium salt is the aliphatic benzyl ammonium salt, the composition does not contain the dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt or the tetraalkyl ammonium salt,    wherein when the ammonium salt is the dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt, the composition does not contain the aliphatic benzyl ammonium salt or the tetraalkyl ammonium salt, and    wherein when the ammonium salt is the tetraalkyl ammonium salt, the composition does not contain the aliphatic benzyl ammonium salt or the dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt.    
   
   
       12 . The composition of  claim 11 , further comprising water.  
   
   
       13 . The composition of  claim 11 , wherein the aliphatic heteroaryl salt comprises an alkylpyridinium halide.  
   
   
       14 . The composition of  claim 13 , wherein the alkylpyridinium halide comprises cetylpyridinium chloride, cetylpyridinium bromide, or a mixture thereof.  
   
   
       15 . The composition of  claim 11 , wherein the ammonium salt is the aliphatic benzylalkyl ammonium salt and comprises alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium halide, alkyl methylethyl benzyl ammonium halide, or a mixture thereof.  
   
   
       16 . The composition of  claim 11 , wherein the ammonium salt is the dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt and comprises didodecyl dimethyl ammonium halide, ditetradecyl dimethyl ammonium halide, dihexadecyl dimethyl ammonium halide, or a mixture thereof.  
   
   
       17 . The composition of  claim 11 , wherein the ammonium salt is the tetraalkyl ammonium salt and comprises cetyl trimethyl ammonium halide, lauryl trimethyl ammonium halide, myristyl trimethyl ammonium halide, stearyl trimethyl ammonium halide, arachidyl trimethyl ammonium halide, or a mixture thereof.  
   
   
       18 . A method for making an antimicrobial composition, comprising: admixing in any order an aliphatic heteroaryl salt, trichloromelamine, and one ammonium salt selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic benzylalkyl ammonium salt, a dialiphatic dialkyl ammonium salt, and tetraalkyl ammonium salt.  
   
   
       19 . The composition prepared by the method of  claim 18 .
