Scientists told where to 20 000 times more germs than the toilet.
American researchers from CBT Nuggets found that the keyboard represents the greatest threat to human health, as it contains 20,000 times more bacteria than the toilet seat of the toilet.
Money, pet toys, commodes, toilet – all of this has always been regarded as the most dirty from the point of view of bacterial contamination items. However, quite often we’re not aware of how the infected can be our working tools such as a keyboard for a computer or mouse. Researchers have discovered it 20 000 times greater number of bacteria than toilet seat of the toilet. On one computer mouse contains 45 000 times more bacteria than the flush handle on the toilet.
The maximum number of bacteria was revealed on a special electronic pass that is often applied by the people for passage and exit through the turnstiles in offices. This simple computer gadget contained in 243 times more bacteria than on toys for Pets. The researchers tested all regularly used items in order to determine whether they are infected with bacteria. For example, on the electronic admissions contamination by bacteria was 4 620 000 per square inch, and on the trackpad of the laptop is only 810.
Working in the home environment of the person are attacked by various species of bacteria, including gram-positive cocci, bacilli, grampositive and gram-negative rods. The latter are responsible for the unpleasant symptoms and bacilli are the most frequent cause of food poisoning. Gram-positive cocci can cause streptococcal infection.
Gram-negative bacilli capable of developing resistance to antibiotics, and gram-positive are not particularly dangerous to humans. Note that gram-positive cocci are responsible for 42% of all bacteria found by the researchers on the working surfaces.
