Dear student,

The following disinfectants for skin are Isopropyl alcohol and ethyl alcohol. They're used as the most effective skin disinfectants and mostly a good antimicrobial throughout the world.

Most primarily, they're used as disinfectants because of a good evaporation rate which means no particular residue are left behind in the process of vanishing the skin's microbial when attached firmly to the surface of skin making them a important aspect to clear microbials found in the stage of opening the skin while performing certain operations, surgeries, etc.

Disinfecting or removing the infection by successfully eliminating the microbial in a maximum impact can be surely achieved by applying alcohol presence of solutions and thereafter to clear the skin to avoid further infections.

In particular the family of alcohols consist of two most popular and most effective disinfectants used on skin for perfect elimination is standing for Ethyl alcohol or Ethanol and Isopropyl alcohol or Isopropanol having a same property for Disinfecting the skin to remove microbial. Hence, they show microbial removal qualities.

Both of them are having a similarity in both, the structure of bonding and functions as per the disinfection rate given in it. It has the ability to eliminate in a faster rate, (same goes for Ethyl alcohol) viral properties and bacterial cells but not at all really much faster in terms of degrading and killing a living organism or microbial hence, Ethyl alcohol is a better solution in these cases (Because they've a higher concentration solution rate for a quicker evaporation rate).

Therefore, our option becomes too obvious that these two are frequently used for their similar properties and usual effectiveness, that is, Option C) Both (a) and (b) is the final answer to this query.

Hope this helps you and solves your doubts for disinfectants!!!!!
