Preventing or controlling microorganism infection of aq. media, contg. water and =1 organic component, is achieved by admixing a microbicidally active quantity, pref. 10-5000 (100-1500) ppm, of 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol (I). Aq. medium may be an oil-in-water emulsion, esp. a metal working fluid consisting of a mineral oil in water emulsion; an aq. dispersion of an organic pigment; an emulsion paint, a detergent soln. or the water system of a paper mill. (I) does not irritate the skin; is water-soluble and is easily worked into aq. media.
