What is Antibacterial Sanitizer?

Antibacterial agents refer to a class of agents used to control plant diseases caused by various pathogenic microorganisms. An agent that kills or inhibits the growth of pathogenic microorganisms, but does not hinder the normal growth of plants. Fungicides can be classified according to their mode of action, source of raw materials, and chemical composition. Internationally, it is generally used as a generic term for agents used to control various types of pathogenic microorganisms. With the development of fungicides, bactericides, virus killers, algicides and other subclasses are distinguished. ^[1]

The origin of antibacterial materials has been used since ancient times. People found that the water left in silver and copper containers should not be spoiled. Later, the rich and wealthy people in the palace used to use silver chopsticks, and folks used silver jewelry to wear them. It has long been recognized that silver has antibacterial effects.

Anti-bacterial agents refer to chemicals that can keep the growth or reproduction of certain microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, yeasts, algae, viruses, etc.) below necessary levels within a certain period of time. Antibacterial agents are substances or products with antibacterial and bactericidal properties.

Antibacterial agents are generally divided into inorganic antibacterial agents, organic antibacterial agents and natural antibacterial agents.

The antibacterial test is divided into textile antibacterial test standards and other materials antibacterial test standards.

Common antibacterial test standards for domestic textiles are: FZ / T 73023 (knitted fabric) QB / T 2881 (shoe material) GB / T 20944 (textile)

Antibacterial standards for plastic materials and other materials are: QB / T 2591

The common antibacterial standards of textiles in the world are: AATCC 100 (quantitative of antibacterial standards in American textiles), AATCC147 (qualitative of antibacterial standards in American textiles) JIS L 1902 (Japanese textile antibacterial standards), ISO 20743 (international general textile antibacterial standards)

Non-textiles: ASTM E 2149 (American Materials Association Antibacterial Standard), JIS Z 2801 (Japanese Antibacterial Standard), ISO 22196 (International General Antibacterial Standard).

Common strains tested are: Staphylococcus aureus (Gram-positive bacteria), E. coli, Klebsiella (Gram-negative bacteria), Candida albicans, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc.
