Been trying to figure this out for a while.
Color-safe bleach is safe to use on colors, because it doesn't have chlorine. Afaik, chlorine is what kills the germs. So is color-safe bleach only to remove stains? See, I'd actually like to clean my clothes when I clean them. The only stains on them are bleach stains >_>
So if bleach ruins my clothes because I fail at laundry, and color safe bleach doesn't do **** to sanitize them, how am I supposed to disinfect my laundry? Wash it in booze?
Answers, speculation and flames welcome.

Nope. All bleach works by oxidation. Color safe bleaches just have less powerful oxidizing agents. Neither has much to do with chlorine, aside from the fact that it oxidizes well.

Ah, well thanks for clarifying that. What exactly is the oxidizing agent, if you know?
Who am I, ******* Jon Edwards?

I wonder if it would kill me, what without the chlorine.

It says:
Household liquid bleach, identified by the words "sodium hypochlorite" in the ingredient listing is the only bleach that disinfects. It is also the most effective bleach for stain removal and whitening. This is the bleach of choice for whites and colorfast garments.
...
Clorox BottleColor-Safe Bleach is, quite simply, a bleach that is safe to use on washable, colored clothes. These bleaches, available in powder and liquids, remove stains and help keep colors bright. The powdered bleaches also have enzymes to break up tough protein stains, which is why they make an excellent presoak.
* A color-safe bleach is not a diluted bleach. The gentle bleaching action in liquids is from hydrogen peroxide. Powders commonly use sodium perborate.
* These color-safe bleaches also have optical brighteners. This ingredient is like an invisible layer on fabrics. It reflects light, making colors appear brighter and whites whiter.
Wikipedia says Sodium hypochlorite is NaClO, and thus does, indeed have chlorine in it. It indicates it is the chlorine based acid which provides the cleaning action.

Ah thank you. See, I could never find out what the disinfectant was. I assumed it wasn't chlorine. The containers for color-safe only advertised brightening power and stain removal, whereas the chlorine based bleach mentioned the disinfectant properties in several places.
I thought perhaps I would have to start using hydrogen peroxide or isopropyl alcohol in my laundry, and that I was getting hosed on color safe bleach.

Sometimes, this forum makes me wish I was a disabled, black, comunist, homosexual, gipsy, Jew born in Berlin in 1929.
I'm sorry you're trapped here :c
