Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Bleach solutions containing sodium hypochlorite are widely documented and routinely utilized for disinfecting laboratory and clinical surfaces.

The analysis

The claim is specific, empirical, and testable. Multiple retrieved papers explicitly discuss sodium hypochlorite (bleach) as a standard or frequently used surface disinfectant in laboratory and clinical environments. No papers refute the routine use of bleach for surface sterilization, though some compare its efficacy or residual activity to alternative agents.
