The alcohols in hand sanitiser including this Kew Gardens Iris Hand Sanitiser, destroy disease-causing agents, or pathogens, by breaking apart proteins, splitting cells into pieces or interfering with a cell’s metabolism. Studies have shown that alcohol kills a broader variety of bacteria and viruses when the concentration exceeds 60%, and it works faster as the concentration increases.
