The present invention relates to two solvent antimicrobial compositions
and methods employing these two solvent compositions. The two solvent
compositions typically contain a second solvent that is not or is only
sparingly soluble in a diluting solvent. The two solvent composition can
form a clear single-phase solution. The two solvent antimicrobial
compositions can reduce the population of microbes on various surfaces
such as facilities, containers, or equipment found in food, beverage, or
pharmaceutical industries at temperatures between about -70.degree. C. to
about 100.degree. C.
