An investigation of microbial contamination in the home.

E Scott, S F Bloomfield, C G Barlow.   

Abstract

An investigation of the bacterial flora in over 200 homes is reported. The occurrence of potential pathogens and the levels of contamination at individual sites, particularly in the kitchen, toilet and bathroom is described and the implications for hygiene practices in the home discussed.
