Rubbing alcohol comes in a few varieties but all can be simply wiped on a surface, or on the skin, to kill bacteria.
70% isopropanol (isopropal alcohol) is the main ingredient in many hand sanitizers, and is sometimes the only ingredient - so save your money and buy a 95 cent bottle of rubbing alcohol rather than a $6.00 bottle of "hand sanitizer".
Rubbing alcohol is also available as 99% isopropanol, and as 95% ethanol (ethyl alcohol).
