Mixing Rubbing Alcohol and Hydrogen Peroxide Safety
On the safety of mixing medical alcohol and hydrogen peroxide
In recent times, there have been many studies on the safety of mixing medical alcohol and hydrogen peroxide. Medical alcohol, strong in nature, is mostly a solution of ethanol, which has the ability to disinfect and sterilize, and can make bacterial proteins coagulate and denature. Hydrogen peroxide, commonly known as hydrogen peroxide, is also a commonly used disinfectant, with its strong oxidizing ability to break the microbial structure.
However, there are hidden dangers when the two are mixed. Medical alcohol and hydrogen peroxide meet, or biochemical reaction. Ethanol is reducible, hydrogen peroxide is strongly oxidizing, and the two are mixed, or ethanol is oxidized, resulting in complex products such as acetaldehyde, acetic acid, etc. This reaction or heat generation, if in a limited space, heat accumulation and not dissipation, may cause danger.
and the product after mixing, its disinfection and sterilization effect has not been confirmed. It may be thought that mixing can increase the effect, but in fact it is not. The two have different mechanisms of action. After mixing or interfering with each other, they will damage their disinfection ability.
Therefore, if you want to seek the effect of disinfection, you should follow common sense and use medical alcohol or hydrogen peroxide alone. If you mix it, instead of increasing the effect, it will increase the danger, which is not a wise move. Users should be careful and follow scientific methods to ensure safety and effectiveness.
