Mechanism of Pathogen Inactivation
The three primary mechanisms of pathogen inactivation are to:
1.. Destroy or impair cellular structural organization by attacking major cell constituents, such as
destroying the cell wall or impairing the functions of semi-permeable membranes;
2. Interfere with energy-yielding metabolism through enzyme substrates in combination with
prosthetic groups of enzymes, thus rendering the enzymes non-functional
3. Interfere with biosynthesis and growth by preventing synthesis of normal proteins, nucleic acids,
coenzymes, or the cell wall.
Depending on the disinfectant and microorganism type, combinations of these mechanisms can also
be responsible for pathogen inactivation. In water treatment, it is believed that the primary factors
controlling disinfection efficiency are: (1) the ability of the disinfectant to oxidize or rupture the cell
wall; and (2) the ability of the disinfectant to diffuse in
into the cell and interfere with cellular activity

It depends on the kind of disenfectant, some use alcohol, some use ammonia, silver nitrate or other silver compounds or even soaps, acids or sperm
Yes, depending on the bacteria and the disinfectant.
Staph and salmonella are commonly found on the kitchen floor. Salmonella is especially common, because of the likelihood of raw meat in the kitchen. An antibacterial kitchen spray such as Lysol is necessary to destroy kitchen bacteria.
Pathogenic bacteria
the small kind
cocci
Nitrogen fixing Rhizobium bacteria.
Any quality spray, such as Olive Oil.
There are products you can buy at feed stores or pet stores, i find these better than the commercial ones sold at regular stores, these products eat the bacteria, some kind of enzymes in the product and they smell nice, not like a disinfectant or room spray
Lysol makes a variety of anti-bacterial and disinfectant cleaning products for your bathroom and kitchen. Lysol also makes disinfectant sprays and wipes.
Prokaryotic bacteria.

usually the disinfectant wipes are good. one brands that i have tried is clorax.
bad bacteria
Pathogenic bacteria
Bacteria do not have a circulatory system
anaerobic bacteria
the small kind
It depends on what kind of bacteria it is.
