Around March, our stock of alcohol was running low and I was quite worried.
We managed to obtain some through the Fukuoka medical association. Thank you.
How to use ethanol as a hand disinfectant spray
Used as is, it makes your hands rough.
Here is how to use ethanol as a hand disinfectant spray.
Add glycerin(as a moisturizer and lubricant) to a concentration of about 1%.
It becomes sticky, so I used a 5 ml syringe. It can be thrown away as is.
Into a spray bottle, put
○ Disinfectant ethanol (Japanese Pharmacopoeia), 1 bottle: 500 ml
* It is described as containing 76.9 to 81.4 vol% ethanol (depending on specific gravity)
○ Glycerin: 5 ml
If you have absolute alcohol,
○ Absolute alcohol: 500 ml
○ Purified water: 125 ml
○ Glycerin: 6 ml
Mix these and try using it.
