Detecting common nosocomial pathogens on hospital textiles [Elektronski vir]Rozman, Urška, 1981- ...The role of the environment is often ignored in the spreading of nosocomial infections as person-to-person transmission route is the most common vehicle for transmission. However, it is also possible ... for hospital linen to be a vehicle for transmission. The following test microorganisms at different concentrations were inoculated onto textile swatches and dried overnight: Staphylococcus aureus The following test microorganisms at different concentrations were inoculated onto textile swatches and dried overnight: Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. RODAC plate sampling as well as a non-destructive wash-off method for capturing microorganisms from the textiles using a Morapex A device was used. All chosen bacteria were found using all methods. However, the wash-off method using the Morapex A device yielded results in a wider concentration range. The final detectable recovered bacterial concentration on textiles was up to 30 cfu/mL.Source: Proceedings 2015 [Elektronski vir] (Str. 1425-1428)Type of material - conference contributionPublish date - 2015Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 2111908
