If not previously, at least now, due to the
COVID-19 pandemic, you must be hearing a lot
about carrying sanitizing wipes such
as disinfecting wipes and antibacterial wipes,
apart from maintaining social distancing and
wearing mask.
4
And maximum of us tend to think that both the
types of wipes are same and is meant for the same
purpose. But, this is not the reality. Still not
clear? Read the complete write-up.
5
Disinfecting Wipes
A piece of disposable paper towel that is
pre-soaked in disinfecting solutions like
quaternary ammonium salt, sodium hypochlorite and
hydrogen peroxide are termed as disinfecting
wipes.
6
These wipes are capable of killing viruses,
bacteria and fungi, within minutes. The most
important characteristic of it is that it is used
only on hard surfaces to lessen the spread of
bacterial and virus infections.
7
Most of the time, packed with pleasant
scent, disinfecting wipes act as the perfect and
easiest means to keep almost any type of hard,
non-porous surface sanitized.
8
Tables, door handles/knobs, countertops, sinks,
tiles, telephones, keyboards, appliances,
ceramics, toys and etc. are few of the most
common examples.
9
Thus, it is also widely used in offices and
industries. Depending on the purpose of use,
customers can procure these wipes with varied
thickness.

Antibacterial Wipes
Even though antibacterial wipes are manufactured
with similar components, they are mainly for
killing bacteria, than any other types of germs.
11
These wipes come with additional chemicals that
allows them not only to kill the bacteria but
also to prevent them from replicating. 
12
Unlike the previous one, antibacterial wipes are
used for cleaning the skin and sanitizing the
hands. Since they are used on human body,
benzalkonium chloride, benzalkonium chloride and
alcohol are its active ingredients.
13
Off late, its usage has increased in offices,
schools and homes to stay safe from viruses and
other contagious germs. Speaking about its
thickness, they generally are thin, as they are
not for using on hard surfaces. 
14
Although researchers are yet to confirm it
effectiveness in preventing the spread of Corona
Virus, disinfecting wipes and antibacterial
wipes are rapidly flying out of shelves, and
there is no harm in using them, given to the
pandemic situation.
15
Even the World Health Organization recommends
hygiene. Making use of either of the wipes,
people should regularly cleanse and decontaminate
their homes and living spaces. 
16
Just that, since now you know the differences,
remember to use them on things and areas where
these wipes are actually meant for.
