Impacts of silver-coated antimicrobial screen covers on the cell-phone microbiome of resident physicians.

Alexander W McCumber1, Savannah J Volkoff1, Deverick J Anderson2, Claudia K Gunsch1.   

Abstract

An antimicrobial screen was applied to the cell phones of 26 resident physicians to determine its effects on the phone microbiome and its potential to serve as a selective agent for antibiotic or silver resistance genes. No increase of these genes was observed now was there a shift in the overall microbial community.
