Medical disinfectants come in various types, including alcohol-based disinfectants, such as isopropyl alcohol and ethanol, which are effective against a wide range of pathogens. Quaternary ammonium compounds, or quats, are commonly used for surface disinfection due to their efficacy and low toxicity. Additionally, hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite (bleach) are powerful oxidizing agents used to disinfect surfaces and equipment, particularly in healthcare settings.
