poorly worded questions don't get answered often. but yes alcohol kills bacteria as long as the alcohol is strong enough 40% or higher if that's the question

The guy above doesn't know biochemistry. The question wasn't poorly worded, instead, he's poorly educated.
Still waiting for the answer myself. If I can find out, I'll come back and edit this answer.
Kids, you don't answer the question if you have no idea what the person is talking about. It's annoying when you're already frustrated trying to find the answer.
Yes, alcohol can effectively kill E. coli bacteria.
Yes, rubbing alcohol can effectively kill salmonella bacteria. Rubbing alcohol, also known as isopropyl alcohol, is a disinfectant that can help to kill a variety of bacteria, including salmonella. It is important to use rubbing alcohol properly and follow the instructions for disinfection to ensure effectiveness.
Alcohol can effectively kill bacteria within 30 seconds to 5 minutes of contact.
Yes, isopropyl alcohol is effective at killing bacteria by denaturing their proteins and disrupting their cell membranes.
The chemical that kills bacteria in hand sanitizer is alcohol. Most hand sanitizers contain either ethyl alcohol (ethanol) or isopropyl alcohol (isopropanol) as the active ingredient to effectively kill bacteria and viruses on the skin.
as long as the alcohol is a high dosage it should kill all the bacteria
Alcohol can penetrate the bacterial cell membrane and disrupts the membrane structure, leading to leakage of cell contents and ultimately cell death. This disruption of the cell membrane interferes with the bacteria's ability to function and survive.
No, it's chemically a Bacteria
Isopropyl alcohol (isopropanol), the alcohol found in rubbing alcohol, is slightly better at killing bacteria than ethyl alcohol for E. coli and the bacteria in MRSA. Methyl alcohol, or methanol, is the weakest medical alcohol in terms of killing bacteria.
