Which can penetrate a thin latex membrane, viruses or bacteria?norton antivirus
The space between two molecules of latex is only a matter of a few 脜ngstroms wide. Both bacteria and viruses are considerably larger than this. Therefore, latex is impermeable to both bacteria and viruses.
The reason a lot of people ask this question is that there is a pseudoscientific rumor about that HIV can pass through a latex membrane. I assure you, HIV cannot pass the the spaces between a bunch of latex molecules.
So again, latex is impermeable to viruses and bacteria. Condoms are effective in containing HIV.
Which can penetrate a thin latex membrane, viruses or bacteria?security
