The present invention provides a disinfectant/sterilizing composition which includes hinokitiol as the active ingredient. The composition has enhanced solubility of the hinokitiol in water without the need for alcohol as a solubilizing enhancing ingredient due to the presence of aloe vera extract, green tea extract, low striped bamboo extract and dokudami extract. In addition, the solubility of the hinokitiol in water is further enhanced by the additional inclusion of glycerin fatty acid ester surfactant and cara saponine emulsifier. In addition to enhancing the solubility of the hinokitiol in water, the above-noted plant extracts also serve to enhance the biocidal effect of hinokitiol and avoid the objectionable strong odor usually associated with hinokitiol compositions.
