Do not wash clothes for two days: over four times the bacterial
By admin • Nov 16th, 2008 • Category: health careThe more jeans, “punk” as possible, dirty stains look cooler, so some of the young people often jeans and even a few days to wash a few weeks, however, is very unhealthy habits such as bacteria multiplied, and thus a threat to you Health.
China Union Medical Microbiology control expert, Professor Yuen Chi said, wearing a dress when the more activities, do not wear a longer wash, bacteria would have multiplied. According to the students of the school uniform survey shows that no two days to wash the uniforms on the quantity of bacteria, wash the school uniform every day than the quantity of bacteria to more than 4 times, although the degree of dirty looks to the naked eye, almost.
Reporters learned that the pipe, a professor at the release point of view of a school uniform for primary and middle school students report of the health conference, the conference from Tide detergent products together for the common Chinese Peking Union Medical College. After the experts found that hand-washing, bathing, and other health habits have begun to primary and secondary school students and their parents attention, but the concept of Qinhuan laundry needs to be raised. Do not look dirty clothes can not wash, Han Shi-drying clothes to wear, and so can continue to bad habits is not uncommon, the management professor, said Xi Wanzao wearing dirty clothes through the previous day, equal to the basic white bath wash, and dirty clothes May be breeding Staphylococcus aureus, fungi, spores and other harmful components, may pose a threat to people’s health.
In addition, some single people or small families because of less accumulation of dirty clothes to wash up together, to do so from a professional point of view of microbiology also very inappropriate, management professor, said such a case, more dirty clothes on the bacteria not only We will continue with the breeding, but also less pollution, dirty clothes, leading to exponential growth and thus a threat to human health.
The use of bacteria to clothes, “washed” clean
In our perception, not only to wash dirty laundry, but also the best sterilization. U.S. AlexFowler professor at the University of Massachusetts research team, but the use of some of the specific bacteria to “eat” clothes smell of sweat. Fowler’s team approach is to develop the hollow grass-like tendons Mali (Milkweed) to the end of the fiber link, and then a few drops containing E. coli (E.coli) of the plastic into the juice inside the hollow fiber So that the large population of E. coli. Fowler has been able to train with fiber, such as hundreds of E. coli bacteria.
Of course, Fowler of the E.coli screening is not harmful to humans, and these should be modified E.coli, so that it produces a protein similar to the fluorescent jellyfish. The researchers use fluorescence detectors, fiber tube will be able to control the growth of E.coli cases. So far, Fowler found that when cut off after the food, E.coli on a state of dormancy, and once again added to food, they are also active in reproduction.
The use of the above-mentioned such a concept, Flower on the application to the laundry. If the shirt had filled a special strain, the human body when the sweat may be the subject of peeling Tichou protein, these bacteria that is the source of food, clothes and began to “eat” clean; when completely clean clothes, and that the starvation, bacterial A state of dormancy.
Of course, wearing a special bacteria-filled clothes, some people will feel strange, but we do not have been gut full of so many Bacteria!
The subject of watched, you will certainly find it very strange that bacteria do the laundry and was totally unrelated to the two things, how I wander up to it? In fact, thanks to a person, the U.S. scientists Sifu Le Alex, as he put forward to allow bacteria to wash clothes this wonderful idea.
Fowler suggested that the textile fibers into with a number of specific species of bacteria, their clothes in the continuously breeding in order to eat up oil pollution in the clothing and perspiration. He further explained that these bacteria is that he passed on some of the bacteria genetically modified to carry out post-breeding. He recently found a number of water-resistant bacteria can be born, if these bacteria into the fibers of clothes, will be able to play a role in preventing moisture, can protect the material, to extend the life of clothes. You do not need to worry about these bacteria are hazardous to health, all of which is like yeast, like bacteria, we do not have any harmful effects.
However, to realize the idea of Fowler can not be easy, on the one hand, let bacteria into the fiber, the fiber on the other hand, they want to survive, these are not easy. Fowler thought that the capillary fiber can be used to the role of the inhalation of bacteria fiber, but without success. In further experiments, he found a hole there at both ends of the fiber plant, the vacuum pump used in connection with such a fiber-hole, the inhalation of bacteria containing a few drops of agar gel, in which the results of the bacteria can easily form a colony And growth and reproduction. In a recent test, he also hundreds of bacteria sucked into the fiber of this hole. At present, he is studying how to inhalation of bacteria to other fibers.
So far, Fowler has also not sure that bacteria can survive in the long fibers. To stop these bacteria in nutrition, they may be in a state of dormancy. If you add fiber immersed in the nutrient solution, the bacteria may be resurrected. Fowler is mainly applied to the idea of underwear, underwear because the stains from the main bacteria can eat organic matter and perspiration, if put into bacteria underwear, you can not clean a long time. Of course, one thing needs to be done, and that is underwear on a regular basis to the exclusive use of nutrition, clean liquid bubble about to ensure that the bacteria have enough nutrition for breeding.
Fowler that the thought, the United States, a fashion company’s technical director said that this was a very creative and marketing prospects for the idea, to use high-tech clothing in the future development trend of clothing. By bacteria not only saves laundry detergent, a reduction of environmental pollution, but also to save time washing clothes, so that people from out of the laundry.
