Hand sanitizers

Can Methanol be used in handsanitizers or as disinfectant?
No, methanol should not be used in place of ethyl alcohol- or isopropyl alcohol-based hand sanitizers or as a disinfectant to clean surfaces. First, public health agencies have reported that methanol has a weak ability to kill viruses when compared to other alcohols and is less effective than other alcohols. Second, methanol is much more toxic than ethyl or isopropyl alcohols, so it can cause bodily harm when it comes in contact with skin, is swallowed, or is inhaled.
