new biocide called DTEA is specifically effective on metal-surface-resident microorganisms, DTEA is EPA registered and commercially available as biocide but is also available as cleaner formulation which makes no biocide claims on the label (regulatory reasons for this), use of biocide for commercial purposes can be only as approved by EPA but use for small lab purposes is possible when you referred to: "Could a bacteria-cidal effect happen due to reducing Mg, Zn,Mn, Cu, and other metals in bacterial metallo-enzymes?", assume you meant that if some agent interferred with the metals, could one expect a biostatic or biocidal effect? answer is: yes, in fact quinoline based antibiotics have such mode of action (meaning they reversibley complex with the metals in select enzymen systems) call us at 517 839-0377 8-5 EST for further information if interested or e-mail this address for an e-mail file (PowerPoint) on DTEA Attila G.
