Disinfectants

Disinfectants play a crucial role by eliminating pathogens from various surfaces. These antimicrobial substances are designed to eliminate, inhibit or reduce the growth of undesirable micro-organisms such as bacteria, viruses and fungi. The use of disinfectants is ubiquitous in a variety of environments, from hospitals and laboratories to public spaces and households.

Disinfectants work by disrupting the cellular structures of micro-organisms, altering their proteins, nucleic acids or cell membranes. Formulations vary according to the type of pathogen targeted and the surface to be disinfected. Some disinfectants are specifically designed for medical use, while others are intended for domestic applications.

The importance of disinfectants has increased in the context of infectious disease prevention, highlighting their crucial role in combating the spread of infection. However, it is imperative that these products are used judiciously, in compliance with application guidelines, to avoid any negative impact on the environment and human health.

With constant advances in research and development, new generations of disinfectants are emerging, offering more effective and environmentally-friendly solutions for safeguarding public health.
