A Concise Contrast Of Antibacterial Soap Versus Purell Hand Sanitizer
Studies have shown that most people contract infections from germs that they get on their hands through handshakes, wiping their faces, touching surfaces that have germs on them and covering their mouth with their hand when they sneeze. Over 80% of infections that are contracted including E Coli, are prevented when proper hygiene such as antibacterial soap or Purell hand sanitizer is used on a regular basis. This article will compare these two products.
The problem that became apparent when the realization that hand hygiene was important for everyone was the need for a quick and easy way to kill germs without having to resort to disposable gloves. Soap, while effective in getting rid of germs, requires water and a paper, or towel to dry off hands once they are cleaned. A towel left by a sink and used by multiple people washing their hands, defeats the purpose of the soap, because people pick up germs when they dry their hands.
Purell is a lightweight solution that is easy to use, affordable and kills germs on contact. Since it dries quickly without the need for a towel or water, it is ideal for children or grown-ups who are on the goal. With a sanitizer, 99.9% of germs are killed instantly and the bottle is very easy to include in a bag or backpack.
A sanitation station is more efficient when it is in an easy to access location in a home, office, or other area. Soap dispensers are limited to bathrooms and areas near water. However, the frames for systems are mobile and can be placed in any high traffic area. Since the main ingredient for Purell is alcohol however, it will be important to have an alternative for individuals who have this sensitivity.
Triclosan or Chloroxylenol are the main ingredients in antibacterial soap. These ingredients do not kill germs on contact as the alcohol based product does, however they soap generally has more moisturizers in the solution. While Purell contains moisturizing emollients, there can still be dryness when it is used on a regular basis. Another issue is that in order to stay germ free after washing with soap, an individual must have a clean towel. Many people simply "move" germs when they are sharing a dirty towel after hand washing.
Purell is available in many different sizes so that they can accommodate any location; therefore it is easy to get a lightweight pump container for children or people with health conditions. The soap is available in liquid or a bar, but is not a viable option for use in areas where there is no water source. In addition, the containers for Purell are recyclable and can easily be switched from the frame when used in a health care or food service area.
Many people have found that keeping the Purell sanitizer in their homes is more convenient than making family members wash their hands at a sink when they have been outside, touch something or use the telephone. Since it does not need a water source to be used and air-dries very quickly, there is no need to have a towel or water on hand for use, such as with antibacterial soap.
When you compare antibacterial soap vs. Purell, considering the needs of yourself and your family will be important. An individual who has a tendency to catch colds or the flu easily will find that carrying a small bottle of Purell in their car, bag, and other places where you frequent, will be a great way to kill germs fast. This is a great product that will help lessen the use of disposable gloves in the household.
