| deoderant | product of formulation of disinfectant |
| detergent | Cleaner, soap |
| non-ionic detergents | do not contain free ions and when mixed with water will not leave a surface film |
| Anionic compouds | primarily soaps have free negatively charged ions that will produce a soap film when mixed with hard water |
| disinfectant | inactivate or destroy 100% of susceptible vegetative bacterial cells on inanimate objects but may not affect spores or certain viruses; will have a spectrum |
| fungicidal | refers to chemicals that destroy some vegetative fungi, but not necessarily the spores |
| germicidal | indicates the product kills some type of microoganism; check lit for spectrum |
| sanitizer | chemical that reduces the number of micro-organisms to a level that is less likely to be a health hazard. required to kill 98-99% to be labeled as a sanitizer. |

| sterilization | process inactivates or kills 100% of the vegetative forms of ALL micro-organisms present. |
| viricidal | product that can kill some viruses. |
| virus types (2) | 1. virus with an envelope composed of protein molecules and lipids 2. virus with an envelope composed only of proteins (non-enveloped) |
