Which of the following is not used as a disinfectant?

A
1-2% Cetrimide
B
100% Alcohol
C
2% Lysol
D
5% Chloroxylene
High-Yield Explanation
A 70% solution of alcohol takes more time in evaporation from the surface, increasing the contact time. Therefore, 70% isopropyl alcohol is suitable for disinfection.  100% isopropyl alcohol coagulates the protein instantly creating a protein layer that protects the remaining protein from further coagulation.
