Surgical instruments should not be cared for using?

Soap and water
Corrosive chemicals
Antibacterial wipes
Alcohol-based solutions

The correct answer is: Corrosive chemicals

Surgical instruments require thorough cleaning and disinfection after use to prevent the spread of infections. However, using corrosive chemicals for cleaning can damage the instruments and compromise their functionality. The other options, soap and water, antibacterial wipes, and alcohol-based solutions are all suitable for cleaning surgical instruments as they do not cause damage. Soap and water are mild and can effectively remove debris and dirt while antibacterial wipes and alcohol-based solutions can kill harmful bacteria and viruses.
