Hands

Source of contamination
The human being is one of the major sources of contamination in pharmaceutical production processes. The most important measure to deal with this is the strict enforcement of the hygiene regime. Hand disinfection is one of the most effective measures to prevent the transfer of troublesome microorganisms. In this respect, alcoholic disinfection is clearly superior to other procedures for hand disinfection.

Directive of biocidal products 98/8, article no 22:
