Hand sanitizers do not require EPA registration. Hand sanitizers are separate from surface sanitizers and disinfectants, which require compliance to a different set of regulations. Prefense is in accordance with the FDA’s Tentative Final Monograph (TFM) which approves up to .13% Benzalkonium Chloride (BAC) as an active ingredient.
As an RN, I never liked using the hand sanitizers as they would dry out my skin & smell of chemicals. Soap & water was always good enough for me...until I was introduced to Prefense. I also found it surprising to know that many are unaware of the ineffectiveness associated with alcohol based sanitizers. They only work when they're wet. Once the alcohol dissipates; it's no longer effective. With Prefense, I am assured of the best protection and my skin remains moisturized!
Think about it...to be able to don invisible gloves while, unknowingly, coming into contact with bacterium and not having it penetrate into my skin is one of the best and affordable insurance policies I can have. Also, knowing I cannot transfer the bacterium onto anyone or anything else is absolutely amazing to me. It's a win win in any setting . Prefense up, folks! It is your best defense!
