科研人员从每个卫生间的地板、空气和物品表面取样。他们瞄准的细菌主要是包括大肠杆菌(它们会引发广泛的感染,包括肠胃炎、肺炎和败血症等)和肠球菌(有这种细菌存在便很难治疗感染)在内的肠细菌。
They also looked for Staphylococcus aureus, which is responsible for a range of conditions, from minor skin and wound infections to life-threatening septicaemia.
科研人员还试图寻找金黄色葡萄球菌,该细菌会引发一系列疾病,包括较轻微的皮肤和伤口感染和危及生命的败血症。
Across the three hospitals, bacterial counts were significantly higher in the toilets on the days that jet air dryers were in use.
在三家医院中,卫生间的细菌数在使用喷气式烘手机时都明显要多一些。
"We found multiple examples of greater bacterial contamination on surfaces, including by faecal and antibiotic-resistant bacteria, when jet air dryers rather than paper towels were in use," Professor Wilcox said.
威尔科克斯教授表示:“我们发现许多在使用喷气式烘手机时表面细菌污染更严重的例子,包括肠球菌和多重抗药性细菌,明显比使用纸巾时多。”
