Misunderstanding of household disinfection

1, disinfection is sterilization.

The words "disinfection" and "sterilization" are often mixed in life, but in fact their meanings are different. Disinfection is to kill microorganisms, not spores and other microorganisms that are still in a "dormant state"; Sterilization means killing all microorganisms including spores.

In other words, sterilization is stricter than disinfection, which is usually used in food industry and medicine, and it is difficult to achieve in life. Therefore, only disinfection is needed at ordinary times to reduce the number of pathogenic microorganisms to a level that will not cause human diseases.

2. The stronger the disinfectant, the better.

Disinfectants have certain toxic and side effects. Too high a concentration will irritate people's mouth, respiratory tract and lungs. After a long time, it may cause damage to organs and tissues, making them fragile and susceptible to infection. Therefore, before using disinfectant, it should be diluted appropriately according to the instructions.

3. Spray disinfectant at home to keep the air fresh.

The best way to keep the air fresh at home is not disinfection, but window ventilation. After all, the family is not a hospital, and the amount of bacteria is limited. If disinfectant vapor remains in the air, it will damage the respiratory tract after inhalation.

In addition, it should be noted that in the process of using disinfectant, it is best to wear rubber gloves and masks.

People's Network-Disinfection is sterilization. The stronger the disinfectant, the better. You should pay attention to these misunderstandings.
