In the summer the theme of bacterial infections more relevant than ever - hot and not too careful sanitation is doing their job. But do not think that at risk are only amateurs suspicious street shawarma. Many of the things we use every day can be a real breeding ground for germs.
According to immunologist at New York University, from 50 to 80% of food poisoning and intestinal disorders occur exactly at home. That is, where - as considered - can be poisoned only in extreme cases, as an exception. And yet, as it turns out, in the summer can be poisoned Just hold in their hands the TV remote. And not only…
What do you get: Rotavirus . salmonellosis . trachoma . intestinal yersiniosis
Cutting board dirtier lid from the toilet
It is estimated that in a conventional cutting board fecal bacteria contains 200 times more than the the toilet seat . The reason is simply a misunderstanding: the toilet seat often washed and disinfected. The board is the majority of people just rinses with water. Such washing is not terrible bacteria that colonized the cracks in the microscopic surface of the board. Therefore, the scientists say, it is better not to use wooden boards. And the plastic is necessary after each use, thoroughly washed under hot water, and even better - in the dishwasher.
How dangerous the TV remote?
The surface of the panel from the TV - a real "alternate airfield" for many dangerous viruses. What often seize control of the fat hands of bacteria creates the perfect breeding ground. However, even a daily rub antibacterial wipes does not give the desired result: all the slits on the remote control still can not be cleaned. Experts advise to keep control of the polyethylene, which is much easier to keep clean. And, of course, wash your hands often.
Caution: Watch!
More precisely, danger lurks in a leather strap watch. Believe me, even very good Watchband It can cause serious illness. Leather strap being porous in structure, has the ability to absorb sweat, which serves as food for bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus aureus Provoking skin infections. And if the wrist has an abrasion or scratch, the Watchband almost certainly create problems.
Towels and washcloths
On a wet surface towels or washcloths dying skin cells creating a favorable environment for bacteria, which in contact with the body are moving on our skin. If the skin has at least a small poverzhdenie, bacteria will find this "loophole" in the body.
Physicians are advised to wash personal towels at least once a week. And be sure to dry them thoroughly after each wipe. But the guest towels should be washed immediately after the guests left the house.
Urgent change the linens!
It turns out that even does laundry linen perfectly clean - bacteria still remain in the fibers of the fabric. After the first night on the sheets may be polryadka 10 billion germs including fecal bacteria, mycobacteria causing tuberculosis, and Salmonella.
To be safe, changing linens It should be at least once a week. And to wash it in hot water. In cold and warm bacteria I feel quite comfortable.
Drink Alone
Bottles of water in the summer could become "biological weapons". Especially when used repeatedly, but not washed in hot soapy water (under this condition can often use a bottle). And especially if you drink a bottle of your child. Keep in mind, on baby bottles repeatedly found fecal bacteria - the children, as we know, do not like to wash their hands, including after using the toilet.
The guard, bag!
The inner surface of the bag can breed bacteria such as MRSA, are a kind of aureus . These organisms are very dangerous: in contact with the wound, they can be fatal.
Especially tempting for dangerous viruses sports and travel bags, which carry clothing and shoes containing dead skin cells, sweat allocation (and not only our own, but also, for example, those people who were engaged in close in the gym). Therefore wipe bags antibacterial wipes when removing clothes. And more often wash.
