Bleach, Domestos, garden products, surface cleaner, stuff that can be found in a shed, etc.
Bleach liberates chlorine and chlorine is a powerful oxidising agent. Oxidation of the structure of the microbe destroys/kills it.
Two basic types of chemicals kill germs. 1) Antibiotics e.g. Penicillin, Sulphonamide and 2) Oxidising agents e.g. Chlorine bleach, Hydrogen Peroxide.
chlorine is oxidising
Magnesium is the oxidising agent.

In textile industry oxidising agents are used to bleach cloths. Chlorine water is the example for this.

It turns black because bleach is an oxidising agent, this discolouration can be removed by polishing the surface, sometimes jewellery cleaner will work but sometimes leaves it a bit dull, probably best to leave it to a jeweller
Oxidising is losing eletrons
Bleach, peroxide, swimming pool chemicals that contain chlorine and photographic chemicals used for B&W processing.
KMnO4 and H2SO4 are oxidising agents. Oxidising agents are hungry for electrons...

Fluorine is the strongest oxidising agent.
Oxidising is a reaction which is caused by oxygen in the air. Hope this helps.
