Which one among the following is added to soap to impart antiseptic property?
- A. Sodium lauryl sulphate
- B. Sodium dodecyl benzene sulphonates
- C. Rosin

Step-by-step solution
Bithional is an antiseptic agent added to soaps to kill or inhibit bacteria, imparting antiseptic properties. Sodium lauryl sulphate and sodium dodecyl benzene sulphonates are surfactants used for cleansing, not antiseptic action. Rosin is used in soap making for lather stability and hardness, not antiseptic.
