Antiseptics versus Disinfectants - What's the Difference?

Author:  Selena Belisle, Founder/Instructor, CE Institute LLC, Miami FL 

 

Antiseptics: are germicides applied to living tissue and skin.  You can use an antiseptic on yourself (or others) to try to kill germs.

Disinfectants: are antimicrobials applied only to inanimate objects.  You can apply disinfectants to objects or surface areas to try to kill germs (you should always clean prior to disinfecting an object or area).  Disinfectants are not made to apply to a human body.  You should use gloves when handling disinfectants.

In general, antiseptics are used only on the skin and not for surface disinfection, and disinfectants are not used for skin antisepsis because they can injure skin and other tissues.
