title: [Chemicals for disinfection and decontamination used and being designed for eliminating the aftermaths of biological contamination].
abstract: The efficiency of the key classes of disinfecting and decontaminating chemicals, used to eliminate a biological contamination of the human habitat, was analyzed in the paper. It is underlined that, should any biological agents with unknown properties (biological terror, military threat) be detected, it is advisable to choose the ecologically less hazardous disinfectants based on hydrogen peroxide, aldehydes and chlorine-containing compounds.
