Detailed explanation-1: -Cleaning is the process of removing visible dirt, dust and other soils from surfaces. It is typically completed with a cloth or wipe in conjunction with a detergent, soap or solvent. Cleaning on its own does not kill or thoroughly remove bacteria or viruses from surfaces, but it is still essential.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cleaning removes most germs, dirt, and impurities from surfaces. Clean with water, soap, and scrubbing. Sanitizing reduces germs to levels public health codes or regulations consider safe. Sanitizing is done with weaker bleach solutions or sanitizing sprays. Clean surfaces before you sanitize them.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cleaning is the removal of food residues, dirt, grease and other undesirable debris. This requires physical energy (elbow grease!), heat and/or chemicals (detergents). Cleaning only removes dirt from the surface but does not kill all bacteria. Disinfection is the reduction in levels of bacteria to a safe level.
