how do disinfectants antiseptics and antibiotics differ in their use ?
Answer Hi, These three classes of agents work in different situations. Disinfectants are antibacterial agents used on inanimate surfaces, they are useful for use in bathrooms or or floors and instruments. Antiseptics are used topically, so if one is injured, the wounds are cleaned with antiseptics. Antibiotics are used in living systems, for patients or animals. I hope this helps.
