Abstract

Novel halophenyl and loweralkyl substituted halophenyl polyamines are useful antimicrobial agents, as well as algae inhibitors. They are especially useful because of their low toxicity, and as such are advantageously included as the active agent in surgical scrubs, antibacterial soaps, as preservatives in cosmetic preparations, and the like.
