Question
Chapter 9, Problem 10SA
Summary Introduction
To answer:
To compare and contrast the action of alcohols, halogens, and oxidizing agents in controlling microbial growth.
Introduction:
The disinfectant has the property of chemical and physical methods to devoid the microbes, yet apart from sterilization, most of the disinfectants do not have ability to exclude microbes completely. Most of the disinfectants have ability to inhibit the microbes temporary.
