Relationship Between Bactericidal Activity and the Hydrophobicity-Hydrophilicity Balance of Alcohol Solutions

Alcohols showed bactericidal activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Escherichia coli, and Enterobacter cloacae suspended in 0.85% (v/v) saline in the order of n-butanol>n-propanol>ethanol>methanol.Against the bacteria suspended in n-octane, however, alcohols showed a re...
