Abstract

The present invention is an apparatus and method for disinfecting or sanitizing a desired object. The apparatus includes a container for an aqueous solution, the container may be a spray bottle (22). The apparatus includes an electrolytic cell (46), containing an electrolyte (24), an electrical power source (36), a control circuit (34) for providing an electric charge to the electrolyte to create an oxidant, and a fluid connection between the cell and container to permit introduction of the oxidant into the aqueous solution to create a disinfectant.
