The germicidal efficiency of an aqueous disinfectant cleaning composition is increased by incorporating an effective amount of a compound of the formula I R-O(-G)nI wherein R is an alkyl group having from about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms, G is a saccharide residue having 5 or 6 carbon atoms; and n is a number from 1 to 10 into an aqueous composition which contains a compound of the formula II R2R3R4R5NX wherein R2 is a benzyl or C1-4 alkyl substituted benzyl group, and each of R3, R4, and R5 is independently an alkyl group having from about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms. |
