Hands are the most important in the transmission and spread of pathogens that causes disease. Hand hygiene has been said to be the most important way to avoid these infections. Hand hygiene, particularly hand sanitizing, is essential in reducing infectious disease transmission. This study is set out to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of four different hand sanitizers which were selected from ten different sanitizers against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and as well as to assess and compare the antimicrobial effectiveness among four different hand sanitizers by three different methods. Results showed higher inhibitory activity of the products to E.coli than Staphylococcus aureus. The hand sanitizing products tested in this study are suitable in disease prevention.
