Family Life Knows Everything.

Chapter 139
American scientists have confirmed through experiments that wet dishes are breeding grounds for bacteria.Before people wash the tableware and put it in the cupboard, if it is not dried, the tableware is likely to be contaminated with bacteria.

In this experiment, the researchers selected 100 unwashed plates. They washed half of them, left a small amount of water on the surface of each plate, and then stacked them up. Allow to dry for 50 hours before storing.The final analysis found that the number of bacteria growing on the undried plates was significantly higher than that of the dried plates.

Bacteria like to live in moist environments.If the tableware is not dried after washing, it will be put away directly. In addition, the ventilation in the cupboard is not good and the temperature is high, it is more likely to breed bacteria and contaminate food.In a completely dry environment, the chances of bacteria surviving will be greatly reduced. If the tableware is fully dried, it will not provide a living environment for bacteria.

Scientists suggest that at home, it is best to use a disinfection cupboard to dry tableware, so as to better ensure hygiene.If there are no conditions, after washing the tableware, at least it should be aired for a while. You can prepare a tableware rack and place the bowls and plates vertically on it.Only in this way can bacteria not be provided with an environment for survival and reproduction, and the hygiene of tableware and food safety can be guaranteed.

family life made easy

Do not wipe tableware with toilet paper, because unsterilized or incompletely disinfected toilet paper contains a lot of bacteria, which is easy to stick to the items and food to be wiped, which is very unhygienic.
