Investigation and treatment of floors of patients' rooms: a study with an agar cylinder
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 May 2009
Extract
A cylinder filled with medium is described, with which prints are made of floors or other surfaces. After a print has been made a slice is cut off the medium, put in a Petri dish and incubated. With one filled cylinder about twenty prints can be made. The method can be used for quantitative bacteriological testing of floors, and the effect of treatment with disinfectants can also be checked in a simple way. Preference was given to disinfection with Halamid.
