Enhanced anti-bacterial potency of Patanjali Hand Sanitizer (PHS). a, c Grouped column graphs representing comparisons between % bacterial growth inhibition exhibited by the standard hand sanitizer (used as positive control) and PHS against S. epidermidis (a) and S. aureus (c). b, d Anti-bacterial potencies of the standard hand sanitizer (positive control) and PHS against S. epidermidis (b) and S. aureus (d) are represented as dose response curves along with the calculated MIC₅₀ values (concentrations at which either of the hand sanitizers is capable of 50% bacterial growth inhibition)
