When I clean, some cleaners will have instructions for disinfection versus sterilization. What is there difference between disinfection and sterilization
user
In general, a disinfectant will have more complete and diverse molecules than a sterilizer, which is generally intended to stop just a few specific diseases.  In terms of germs, germicides have compounds that kill specific types of bacteria.  Disinfectants, like bleach, have a broad range of molecular structures that can react with almost any surface, or kill almost any type of bacteria.  Sterilizers are more difficult to manufacture and can harm the environment when waste or harmful by-products are released.  For example, many people mistakenly think that silver works as a sterilizer because it's “naturally sterile”, when it actually kills germs because it is toxic and you have to constantly keep it clean.  The most common sterilizers are hydrogen peroxide and alcohol.
