I asked our microbiologist at the hospital i work at about the soap in
general being antibacterial. ( For a simple experiment leave a goop of soap
on the counter and one of sphegetti sauce and see which one attracts visible
molds.) anyway he said he thinks soap is mostly antibacterial ( without a
growth medium to support the bacteria) however he does think certain molds
can grow in it. Now there is the problem is our rot bacterial or fungal or we
have the both. SO we need a better authority. As an RN we wash constantly
but it also is the mechanical action of friction and running water that aids.
Certain substances such as soap and alchol will, cause cell wall
lysis(death) by effectivlely bursting or deteriortating the immediate cells.
