May I suggest vinegar in the rinse?  This pH will clean many things.  I use
straight vinegar on my cutting board since reading it disinfects better than
bleach.

   Do you think vinegar is better than CS ?

Cutting boards can be relatively free of bacteria if the right wood is used.

I believe Maple is the preferred wood. End grain is better than flat grain as it dulls the knives less.

Some suggest that the boards be sealed with mineral oil to eliminate any pores for the bacteria.

   Surprisingly, bacteria do not live as well on wood as they do on plastic.

If the board was small enough to fit in the microwave, that should eliminate the bacteria.
