According to a new study out of South Korea, antibacterial soap is just as effective as regular soap at killing germs, and could be harmful to your health.
根據韓國的一項新研究，抗菌香皂與普通香皂的殺菌效果相同，而且還有可能對健康造成損害。
Researchers explain that the active ingredient in most antibacterial soaps, triclosan, does a better job of killing bacteria than regular soap, but only under very specific, unrealistic circumstances.
研究人員表明多數抗菌香皂中的活性成分，三氯生，比普通香皂的殺菌效果要好，但是只有在非常具體且不切實際的條件下才能做到。
Like, say, if you were to wash your hands for nine hours.
比如說，你要洗九個小時手才能有效果。
If, however, you wash your hands with room temperature antibacterial soap for about 20 seconds, you may as well use regular soap.
但是如果你用室溫下的抗菌香皂洗手20秒，那最好還是選擇普通香皂。
Triclosan has been raising FDA eyebrows for years.
三氯生近年來一直都吸引著食品及藥物管理局的注意。
This study was, indeed, prompted by the FDA’s 2013 call for antibacterial soap makers to prove their product more effective than regular soap.
這項研究就是由食品及藥物管理局2013年的號召引起的，它要求抗菌香皂生產商去證明他們的產品比普通香皂更有效。
