Which soap kills more bacteria: liquid hand soap or bar soap?

Neither. The action of washing your hands with soap and water serves to wash away the bacteria from your hands regardless of the type of soap you use. The same bacteria will be on your bar of soap as will be on the bottle of liquid soap - meaning that you have to touch one or the other to get to the soap so it would be a personal preference. Anti-bacterial soap is still soap. It only serves to kill the bacteria that you are sending down the drain when you rinse your hands and lowers your resistance to bacteria, much the same effect as those who take antibiotics for an extended period of time.Which soap kills more bacteria: liquid hand soap or bar soap?
personaly....bar soap. antibactiral soap isn't really a good thing. it could kill the good infection killing bacteria on your hands. i recomend dial soap. it kills some bacteria but not a lot. hot water is the keyWhich soap kills more bacteria: liquid hand soap or bar soap?
liquid hand soap is better....


coz the normal bar soap is made up of large amount of potash-OH which is used to harden the bar and also it will take much time for the bar soap to lather ...


i go for bar soap.....
bar soap just keeps bacteria on it, after handwashing. I would use liquid because it's in a pump, and there is no cross contamination.
Liquid hand soap due to the fact that germs will have less chances to multiply in the soap dish and/or the soap itself.
washing your hands well with warm soapy water for using friction kills more bacteria than worrying about a specific type of soap.
Liquid! i love liquid, but just my opinion :)
