    Advantages of soap: the most effective against bacteria, using soap and water to wash hands is no less effective than using chlorine disinfectant, and can remove most germs, even anthrax virus spores. Cons:

    Soap has a strong ability to remove fat, and as a hand cleansing product for a long time, it will weaken the acid-base neutralization ability of the fat film of the hand skin, and the skin is prone to problems such as tightness, peeling, dryness and roughness.

    Advantages of soap: The cleaning effect of soap is not significantly different from that of ordinary soap. However, some moisturizing skin care ingredients will be added, such as glycerin, coconut acid, palmitic acid, etc., which can play an emollient role.

    Disadvantages: After using soap, there is often a feeling of tightness. However, due to the ability of self-regulation, usually after half an hour, the sebum secretion is even, and the discomfort will disappear automatically, which belongs to the normal metabolic process of **.

    Precautions: Soap The surface of soap is easy to accumulate dust and bacteria in the air, which is easy to cause secondary pollution of the skin in the process of repeated use.

    Hand sanitizer is more convenient to use, which can effectively avoid cross-infection caused by multiple people sharing soap and soap, as well as the growth of bacteria caused by wet soap dispensers.

    Disadvantages: Due to the relatively weak ability to remove fat, it will not damage the skin's original metabolic function, and it is gentler to the skin. The decontamination ability is weak, and it basically only plays the role of sterilization.

    Most hand sanitizers contain alcohol, but alcohol is not effective in removing some dirt attached to the tiny crevices, such as dust, mud, blood stains, etc.

    Many wet wipes on the market are marked with the words "disinfection and sterilization", indicating that they can kill bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, so people often use it to "wash their hands" when going out to play and dining in restaurants. In fact, wet wipes are not a substitute for soap and hand sanitizer to clean**.

    Summary; Ordinary hand sanitizers can't remove small bacteria, so many people give up choosing hand sanitizers, but in fact, choosing highly effective hand sanitizers does not have this problem at all.

    Hand sanitizer is a common cleaning product in daily life, which has a strong ability to remove stains and sterilizes. Hand sanitizers are rich in active substances, such as surfactants and germicidal ingredients, which can effectively dissolve and clean contaminants such as grease and dirt on hands. The antimicrobial agent in this hand sanitizer can quickly kill bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, and play a role in protecting the body's health.

    Simply apply it to your hands and rub them together for a few moments to clean your hands quickly and easily.

    In contrast, soap and wet wipes are less effective at removing stains and bacteria. Although soap also has a cleaning effect, it mainly achieves the effect of decontamination and sterilization through mechanical friction and cleaning. There are no antiseptic ingredients added to the soap, and the main role it plays is to wash away dirt and bacteria from the surface.

    Although wet wipes are easy to carry and use, their decontamination and sterilization ability is relatively weak, and they are mainly suitable for some simple cleaning tasks, such as wiping the tabletop, cleaning infants and young children**, etc.

    Hand sanitizers have a better ability to remove stains and bacteria. It has a strong cleaning power and sterilizing effect, which can quickly and effectively remove hand dirt and kill bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, providing us with more comprehensive protection. Therefore, the use of hand sanitizer is an ideal choice in daily life.

    I think this is still hand sanitizer, after all, hand sanitizer contains bactericidal substances.

    I believe that most people choose hand sanitizer because it is easy to use, can sterilize, and has an emollient effect. Hand sanitizer is not a substitute for soap.

    Removing dirt, sterilization and disinfection are the main purposes of hand washing, and hand sanitizer can only fulfill its bactericidal effect because most hand washing.

    The liquid contains alcohol, and alcohol cannot effectively remove some dirt attached to the smallest crevices, such as dust, mud, blood stains, etc., so once the hands are contaminated with such dirt, it is not enough to use hand sanitizer. It can be seen that the premise of using hand sanitizer is to remove these dirt first. Therefore, in this case, you should use soap to wash your hands instead of using hand sanitizer alone.

    Of course, not all hand sanitizers contain the same ingredients, and if the alcohol content of the hand sanitizer is less than 60%, the bactericidal effect will be greatly reduced, and if you wash your hands with this hand sanitizer, it will not work. When buying hand sanitizers, pay attention to check the content of active ingredients on the product label, some hand sanitizers will be labeled with ethanol, para-aminobenzoic acid and isopropyl alcohol instead of alcohol, etc., it is necessary to confirm that no matter what form is labeled, its content should be between 60% and 95%, if the content is less than 60%, it will not be effective in killing viruses and bacteria. However, the higher the alcohol content, the better, and if the alcohol content is higher than 95% or pure alcohol, the bactericidal effect will be inhibited.

    Hand sanitizer can only be used as a backup for soap, and the best way to wash your hands is to wash your hands with soap first to remove dirt, and then use hand sanitizer to kill and moisturize the skin. When using hand sanitizer, more is not always better, one drop is enough to press each time you use it, and after repeatedly scrubbing your hands, rinse with running water for more than 15 seconds, so that the hand sanitizer can be thoroughly cleaned. Although many hand sanitizers contain skin care ingredients, in the dry winter, if you wash your hands frequently, it will still lead to dry hands**, so apply a special moisturizing hand cream after washing your hands.

    Under the epidemic, which kind of antiseptic effect is the best soap, soap and hand sanitizer? After reading the knowledge.

  14. Anonymous users2024-01-23

    The antibacterial effect of soap and hand sanitizer is derived from the antibacterial ingredients, and the strength of the antibacterial effect depends on the amount of antibacterial ingredients.

    Take alcohol as an example (most soaps and hand sanitizers use alcohol to inhibit bacteria), half of the alcohol content in soap is about 10 percent, and the alcohol content in hand sanitizer is generally about 70 to 80 percent.

    The ingredients of hand sanitizer and soap are not the same. The soap adds some degreasing functions, which is relatively strong, while the hand sanitizer adds more comprehensive disinfection functions and cleaning functions.

    Because hand sanitizer does not need to be rinsed with water, its disinfectant ingredients will remain on the ** to form a protective layer, so it has a better disinfection effect than ordinary soap.

    In fact, the effect is the same, but hand sanitizer is more convenient.

    This is actually because hand sanitizer has a lot of alcohol in it, and then it is not the same as the composition of soap. Then the functions of the two are also different, hand sanitizer focuses on disinfection, but the function of soap is to focus on cleaning those stains or something, so the effect of hand sanitizer must be a little better than the disinfection effect of soap, and it is also very convenient, when you go out.
