INFECTION PREVENTION & CONTROL ARTICLES

Andrew Kemp and Denise Hanson describe a long-term project to measure air and surface contamination in a variety of settings across a university campus. The study set out to evaluate cleaning technologies and the relationship between air and surface contamination levels.

Dr Andrew Kemp and Dr Vanessa Hodgkinson present a study comparing the bacterial load on surfaces and the air particle counts in a working office environment, after the introduction of two new disinfecting technologies.

Does the introduction of two new disinfecting technologies reduce the risk of cross infection in a busy office environment? Andrew Kemp, Head of the Scientific Advisory Board for the British Institute of Cleaning Science presents a study examining the measurement of surface contamination levels.
