my view on that is that isopropanol is less discriminate in it's toxicity that hydrogen peroxide. as mentioned above, our cells (but not those of bacterial that live without oxygen) have enzymes such as peroxidase, catalyase, and Superoxide dismutase which fight oxygen radicals(how peroxide works to kill cells). Granted as mentioned above, pouring peroxide on surely overwhelms this system to some extent, so some damage can occur perhaps slowing healing. Isopropanoal just 'drys-out' and denatures every thing it hits pretty much.
