Hi, I'm Julie from the Exploratorium. You've probably heard that washing your hands with SOAP and water is the most effective way of the spread of coronavirus. Now the question is, why is soap so helpful? And the answer is due to the biology and the structure of the virus itself. Now many viruses, including coronaviruses are surrounded by a layers And this membrane is exactly the same as the one that surrounds our own cells. The membrane is made of surface that have a really special property. They have one side that I've represented in blue here, that likes water, it's a water-loving end, and then their other half of them dislikes water, it's a water-hating end. It likes fats a little bit more. Now these molecules assemble together so that they have actually two membrane of them. One side line up so the water's facing on this end, and the other side lines up so the water's facing on that. And basically, a ribbon of these surrounds the virus. Now the trick to preventing this virus is to disrupt the membrane. Soap molecules have very similar surfaceThey have one side that likes water, and an other side that's attracted to fat. That's why they're really helpful when you're washing your greasy dishes. If you can get a soap molecule into the virus membrane, it'll evaporate the structure of the membrane, and that inactivates the virus. The other thing that soap is handy for, is it can help us inactivating the behavior of membranes. I have a tray of soapy water here, and a string that I've threaded through two straws. If you wanna try this at home, we have instructions and a recipe for it on our website. You can see that when I pull up the straws, that a film form. This is a soap film. And this membrane has the same behavior as the membrane around the virus. If I touch it with my wet hand, you'll see that it pops. And in fact, when the coronavirus is on a wet , all it needs to do is eventually dry out, and it will be inactivated. However, if I now washing my finger, you'll see that my wet finger does not disrupt the membrane. You've probably heard that the virus travels in respiratory droplets. It needs these droplets of water to keep its membranes intact. Another thing you've probably heard is that if you don't have soap and water available, hand surface that have 60% or more alcohol, are also effective in inactivating the virus. I have some 70% rubbing alcohol here, and this time I'm gonna pull up my membrane, and I have my finger covered in the alcohol. And the moment I touch the membrane, it pops. And so alcohol is another way to inactivate the virus. Now alcohol tends to dry , and maybe that happens before you've gotten it into all the crevices of your hands, so soap and water is really the best choice. So keep sanitizers your hands and celebrate our hero: the soap molecule.
