3% Hydrogen Peroxide Disinfectant Surface Cleaner

3% Hydrogen Peroxide: Powerful Disinfectant for Surface Cleaning

Hydrogen peroxide is a versatile antiseptic used in various medical applications, most commonly for treating cuts, scrapes, and abrasions, and for cleansing infected wounds to remove pus and infection. Trusted by the CDC, hydrogen peroxide effectively kills fungi, bacteria, viruses, and mold spores. As a stable and effective antiseptic against viruses, it's ideal for use on hard, non-porous surfaces. This powerful disinfectant eliminates bacteria like staphylococcus and viruses including H1N1, SARS, and coronaviruses. Typically sold as a 3% or 6% solution, it's ready to use directly from the bottle. Higher concentrations are unsuitable for household use due to their extreme potency; they're utilized industrially as rocket fuel and a potent bleaching/corrosive agent. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is highly reactive, working by oxidation. Reactive oxygen atoms interact with the electrons of microbial cells, disrupting cell walls and destroying bacteria.
