HydrogenPeroxide Oxidation Kills Microorganisms
Hydrogen peroxide can kill microorganisms by oxidation.
Hydrogen peroxide is highly oxidizing. When it encounters microorganisms, it enters the bacterium. Oxygen atoms escape from hydrogen peroxide. This oxygen atom is highly active and can react with molecules in microorganisms, such as proteins, nucleic acids and lipids.
In terms of protein, oxidation causes its structure to be damaged and its original function is lost. Microorganisms rely on proteins for metabolism. Proteins are bad, metabolic disorders, and vitality is difficult to continue.
Nucleic acid is the foundation of biological inheritance. After oxidation, the chain of nucleic acid is broken, the base mutation, the transmission and expression of genetic information is blocked, and the reproduction of microorganisms cannot be obtained.
Lipids play an important role in the microbial cell membrane. After being oxidized, the integrity of the membrane is lost, intracellular substances spill out, external harmful substances invade, and the life activities of microorganisms end.
From this point of view, hydrogen peroxide uses the mechanism of oxidation to overcome microorganisms, making them unable to survive or colonize, so it is a good agent for sterilization and disinfection.
