What Michael said, quaternary ammonium stuff. They're pretty cheap
and reliable. Phenolics are also cheap and reliable.
I think nurses use rubbing alcohol because it dissolves skin oil
and leaves no residue. If you spray much of it, it's expensive.
If you dilute it, it's less effective. There's an important type
of bacteria that it doesn't kill.
Germs do not seem to survive on some surfaces. Years ago,
scientists took cultures from various kinds of hand holds in the
New York Subway. They didn't find dangerous germs.
