这些研究评估了含或不含有机酸的乙醇洗手液去除手上可检测到的鼻病毒以及预防实验性鼻病毒感染的效果。乙醇洗手液比用肥皂和水洗手明显更有效。在乙醇中添加有机酸可提供至少持续4小时的残留杀病毒活性。这些处理方法在自然环境中是否会减少鼻病毒感染仍有待确定。
These studies evaluated the effectiveness of ethanol hand sanitizers with or without organic acids to remove detectable rhinovirus from the hands and prevent experimental rhinovirus infection. Ethanol hand sanitizers were significantly more effective than hand washing with soap and water. The addition of organic acids to the ethanol provided residual virucidal activity that persisted for at least 4 h. Whether these treatments will reduce rhinovirus infection in the natural setting remains to be determined.
