FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to cleaning compositions comprising conversion agents, and methods of using them. In particular, solid cleaning compositions comprising conversion agents comprising water insoluble compounds are provided. The cleaning compositions can be substantially free of a builder, e.g., chelating agent, sequestrant, and/or threshold agent. Methods employing the cleaning compositions are also provided. BACKGROUND The level of hardness in water can have a deleterious effect in many systems. For example, when hard water alone, or in conjunction with cleaning compositions, contacts a surface, it can cause precipitation of hard water scale on the contacted surface. In general, hard water refers to water having a total level of calcium and magnesium ions in excess of about 100 ppm expressed in units of ppm calcium carbonate. Often, the molar ratio of calcium to magnesium in hard water is about 2:1 or about 3:1. Although most locations have hard water, water hardness tends to vary from one location to another. Hard water is also known to reduce the efficacy of detergents. One method for counteracting this includes adding chelating agents or sequestrants into detersive compositions that are intended to be mixed with hard water in an amount sufficient to handle the hardness. However, in many instances the water hardness exceeds the chelating capacity of the composition. As a result, free calcium ions may be available to attack active components of the composition, to cause precipitation, or to cause other deleterious effects, such as poor cleaning effectiveness or lime scale build up. SUMMARY In some aspects, the present invention provides a solid cleaning composition comprising about 1 to about 50 wt% of a conversion agent comprising a water insoluble compound; and about 10 to about 95 wt% of an alkalinity source. The conversion agent causes calcium hardness ions in a water source to substantially precipitate in a non- calcite crystalline form. In some embodiments, the conversion agent is selected from the group consisting of metal oxides, metal hydroxides, and combinations thereof. In other embodiments, the conversion agent is selected from the group consisting of magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, titanium oxide, and combinations thereof. In still yet other embodiments, the conversion agent is selected from the group consisting of magnesium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, titanium hydroxide and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the non-calcite crystalline form is aragonite. In other embodiments, the conversion agent further comprises aragonite. In still yet other embodiments, the conversion agent further comprises about 1 to about 50 wt% of aragonite. In some embodiments, the alkalinity source is selected from the group consisting of an alkali metal carbonate, an alkali metal hydroxide, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the alkali metal carbonate is selected from the group consisting of sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, lithium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, lithium bicarbonate, sodium sesquicarbonate, potassium sesquicarbonate, lithium sesquicarbonate, and combinations thereof. In still yet other embodiments, the alkali metal hydroxide is selected from the group consisting of sodium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises about 1 to about 7 wt% of a builder. In other embodiments, the composition is substantially free of a builder. In other embodiments, the composition further comprises about 1 to about 50 wt% of a salt. In some embodiments, the salt is selected from the group consisting of monovalent alkali compounds having halide or sulfate as the anion. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises about 1 to about 50 wt% water. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises a surfactant selected from the group consisting of nonionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, anionic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants, or combinations thereof hi other embodiments, the surfactant is a nonionic low foaming surfactant. In some embodiments, the composition comprises: about 5 to about 30 wt% of the conversion agent; and about 20 to about 75% of the alkalinity source, hi other embodiments, the composition comprises about 10 to about 20 wt% of the conversion agent; and about 25 to about 65 wt% of the alkalinity source. In some aspects, the present invention provides a solid cleaning composition comprising: about 3 to about 30 wt% of a conversion agent comprising a water insoluble compound; and about 5 to about 90 wt% of an ingredient selected from the group consisting of a salt, a detergent filler, a surfactant, a processing aid, water and combinations thereof, wherein the conversion agent causes calcium hardness ions in a water source to substantially precipitate in a non-calcite crystalline form. In some embodiments, the composition comprises less than 1 wt% phosphate. In other embodiments, the composition comprises less than 1 wt% phosphorus. In some aspects, the present invention provides a method of cleaning an article. The method comprises: (a) providing a solid cleaning composition comprising: (i) about 1 to about 50 wt% of a conversion agent comprising a water insoluble compound; and (ii) about 10 to about 95 wt% of an alkalinity source, wherein the conversion agent causes calcium hardness ions in a water source to substantially precipitate in a non- calcite crystalline form; (b) dissolving at least a portion of the solid cleaning composition to create a use solution; and (c) contacting the article with the use solution, such that the article is cleaned.

Tannylated-CaO2 (TA/CaO2) nanoparticles were prepared by reacting calcium chloride (CaCl2) with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in ethanol containing ammonia and different amounts of TA (10, 25, and 50 mg). The prepared TA/CaO2 aggregates consisted of nanoparticles 25–31 nm in size. The nanoparticles prepared using 10 mg of TA in the precursor solution exhibited the highest efficiency for oxygen generation. Moreover, the oxygen generation from TA (10 mg)/CaO2 nanoparticles was higher in an acidic environment. Keywords: calcium peroxide; tannic acid; oxygen generation 1. Introduction The delivery of sufficient amounts of oxygen to transplanted cells and 3D-engineered tissues remains among the main challenges in the field of cellular engineering [1]. Oxygen deficiency in these cells results in poor extracellular matrix deposition, cell death, and tissue necrosis [2]. Moreover, hypoxic tumor cells in solid tumor tissues are more resistant to radiation and chemotherapy [3,4]. Therefore, the prevention of hypoxia in 3D scaffolds during transplantation and in solid tumors during cancer therapy is essential for enhancing therapeutic effects.

  • Environmentally Safe
    tb131 Page 1 of 2 Environmentally Safe With reference to the safety of contacting ORC with ground water the following review is provided. Regenesis welcomes any further inquiries. Definition of ORC and its Components: ORC is a proprietary formulation of magnesium peroxide (MgO2), which is the active agent. The product contains both magnesium oxide (magnesia, MgO) and magnesium peroxide. A few percent of food grade potassium phosphate (KH2PO4 or K2HPO4) is also present. Behavior of ORC in Contact with Water: ORC is designed to release oxygen when wet. Essentially ORC is "oxygenated magnesia" and it gives up the oxygen upon contact with water. The spent magnesium peroxide is converted to magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2). This also is the fate of the magnesium oxide which simply hydrates to form the hydroxide: MgO + H2O → Mg(OH)2. Therefore, the uniform endpoint of ORC, from both directions, is magnesium hydroxide. The safety of this material is easily conveyed by mention of the fact that a suspension of magnesium hydroxide in water is ordinary Milk of Magnesia. The levels of phosphates from the product are low and they are the same materials that are used to support microbial growth for bioremediation. Other Features: All of the magnesium products discussed are virtually totally insoluble. The ORC can be used in pure form or mixed with an inert carrier matrix and contained in a filter sock that is removable from the source well at will. Magnesium oxide, peroxide and hydroxide are all safe to ingest in small quantities. Magnesium oxide is sold as a magnesium supplement for cattle and is used as a fertilizer material.
