Bleach (or sodium hypochlorite solution) is often recommended by doctors as a good universal disinfectant. While this potent agent can kill many germs, including MRSA and Staph, it has to be used properly and at the correct dilution to work well.
b. Bleach. Dilute bleach is highly effective at decontaminating surfaces and items contaminated with the Ebola virus. Non-porous surfaces that are relatively free of debris and caked or pooled material can be decontaminated with a solution of 1% bleach [1:100 (~8 teaspoons of bleach added to 1 gallon of water or 10 mL of bleach to 990 mL of water)]. For unclean, soiled, dirty and porous surfaces, or when decontaminating an item via immersion, a solution of 10% bleach solution should be used [1:10 (1 cup of bleach added to 9 cups of water or 100 mL of bleach added to 900 mL of water)].3 Even at the higher concentration of bleach solution, disinfection will be more successful if gross debris is removed prior to disinfection. Organic matter will neutralize bleach solution. Bleach solution should remain in contact with surfaces/items
