Abstract

Hand hygiene is most important as it may get contaminated easily from direct contact with airborne micro-organism droplets from coughs and sneezes. In this situation of Covid-19 outbreak, it is extremely important to break the transmission chain of the Covid-19 virus by doing the proper hand sanitization. It can be achieved by strict contact isolation and strict infection control tool by maintaining good hand hygiene in public places and in hospitals. The achievement of the hand sanitization slowly depends on the use of effective hand disinfectant formulated in various types and forms such as antiseptic liquid soaps, water-based or alcohol-based hand sanitizer, with the hindmost being widely used in hospital and public places. Recently, most of the effectual hand sanitizer products are alcohol-based formulations containing 63%–94% of alcohol as it can denaturalize the proteins of microbes and the ability to inactivate viruses. This structured review correlated with the data available in PubMed and it will overlook the range of available hand sanitizers and their efficacy as well as the formulation feature, adverse result, and advise to enhance the formulation efficiency and safety. Further, this article highlights the efficiency of alcohol-based hand sanitizer against the coronavirus.
