Overview
Isopropyl alcohol is a colorless liquid secondary alcohol (chemical formula C3H8O) with disinfectant and antiseptic properties. It acts by denaturing proteins and dissolving lipids in bacterial cell membranes and viral envelopes. This mechanism disrupts microbial structure and function leading to rapid antimicrobial activity. Isopropyl alcohol is widely used topically to prevent bacterial skin infections from minor cuts or scrapes and as a disinfectant in healthcare settings for skin preparation before injections or minor procedures. It also serves as a solvent in pharmaceutical manufacturing and various industrial applications[1][2][4][5].
