Is Hand Washing Enough to Stop the Spread of Disease? Sep. 8‚ 2010 — Not drying your hands thoroughly after washing them could increase the spread of bacteria‚ and rubbing your hands whilst using a conventional electric hand dryer could be a contributing factor‚ according to new research. Frequently people give up drying their hands and wipe them on their clothes instead‚ but hand-hygiene is a key part of infection control and drying hands after washing is a very important part of the process.

Introduction: Chemical methods of control: Antimicrobial drugs‚ involves the use of chemicals to prevent and treat infectious diseases. Pasteur and others observed that infecting an animal with Pseudomonas aeruginosa protected the animal against Bacillus anthracis. Later‚ the word “antibiosis” (against life) for this inhibition and called the inhibiting substance “Antibiotic”. As researchers found out more and more about these chemicals they were able to discover that antibiotics are chemicals

Introduction In this experiment‚ the growth of four cultures‚ which are Escherichia coli‚ Staphylococcus aureus‚ Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) and Penicillum (mold) were examined under a range of acidic to alkaline environments to determine the pH requirements of the four species. By conducting this methodology‚ the range of acceptable pH limits‚ including the optimum pH for each organism‚ can be determined. The range of pH over which an organism grows is defined by three cardinal points: the minimum
