Microbial disinfection is performed using continuous or intermittent lighting using one or more narrow wavelength light sources. The light sources illuminate with narrow wavelength characteristics. The lighting provides a sufficiently high intensity for rapid microbial disinfection process, while reducing the average energy consumption for microbial disinfection during the microbial disinfection process by targeting multiple cellular sites along different inactivation pathways.

The hand sanitizer may be a hand foam sanitizer or a hand gel sanitizer. Each of the hand sanitizers includes at least one stabilizing agent, at least one skin care agent, and a volume of disinfecting micelle capsules suspended therein. Each disinfecting capsule has a polymer shell which defines a hollow core. The polymer shell includes an antimicrobial material. The antimicrobial material may have a concentration of between 0.5 wt % and 95 wt % of the polymer shell. In order to make the hand foam sanitizer, at least one foaming agent is added to produce a foam by air foaming. The hollow core of each disinfecting capsule may be filled with a material, such as at least one disinfectant, at least one fragrance, at least one supplemental skin care agent, or combinations thereof.
