Abstract

The introduction of hygienic cleaning in the domestic setting is justified by healthreasons, due to the increase at home of persons at risk for infections. Furthermore, social and cultural factors, such as deep changes in the family structure and reduced time devoted to home hygiene, suggest the opportunity to increase the use of products containing disinfectants. This procedure, however, may be associated with acute and chronic effects, particularly appearance of resistance, allergies, dermatitis and intoxication. The balance between benefit and risk is positive, but deserve long-term observations. In any case, information and educational interventions are mandatory to guarantee the selection of adequate products and their use at an appropriate level.
