韓國(guó)檢測(cè)顯示購(gòu)物車扶手是細(xì)菌的樂園英語(yǔ)美文

　　韓國(guó)有關(guān)方面最新公布的一項(xiàng)檢測(cè)結(jié)果顯示，在一些人們?nèi)粘Ｉ�活里�?jīng)常接觸的物品中，商場(chǎng)購(gòu)物車的扶手是最容易滋生細(xì)菌的地方，而公共浴池門把手的衛(wèi)生狀況卻并不像某些人想象的那樣糟糕。

　　據(jù)路透社2月14日?qǐng)?bào)道，韓國(guó)消費(fèi)者保護(hù)協(xié)會(huì)對(duì)于公眾經(jīng)常需要用手握住的6種物體的衛(wèi)生狀況進(jìn)行檢測(cè)，并公布了其所含細(xì)菌的具體數(shù)量。在細(xì)菌密集程度上高居榜首的是購(gòu)物車扶手，它上面每1.55平方英寸的“土地”上聚集著1100個(gè)細(xì)菌群落，緊隨其后的是網(wǎng)吧內(nèi)電腦所用的鼠標(biāo)，在同樣面積內(nèi)它平均擁有 690個(gè)細(xì)菌群落。公共汽車上的皮帶拉手以380個(gè)細(xì)菌群落排在第3位，隨后是公共浴池的門把手，其具體數(shù)字為340個(gè)。而電梯內(nèi)的按鈕和地鐵車廂里的皮帶拉手則分別以130個(gè)細(xì)菌群落和86個(gè)細(xì)菌群落排在最后兩位。

　　該協(xié)會(huì)一位工作人員在接受路透社記者電話采訪時(shí)表示：“如此多的細(xì)菌出現(xiàn)在購(gòu)物車的扶手上，原因在于它的表面積比其它被測(cè)物體更大一些，所以人手與其接觸的面積也相應(yīng)變得更大�！痹摍z測(cè)報(bào)告同時(shí)指出，通過用香皂洗手的方法可以將附著在手上的大部分細(xì)菌去除。

　　Shopping cart handles are the most bacteria-infested items among some commonly used objects while doorknobs on public bathrooms are not as bad as might be expected, according to a survey conducted in South Korea.

　　The Korea Consumer Protection Board tested six items that are commonly handled by the public and ran tests for their bacteria content.

　　Shopping cart handles led the way with 1,100 colony forming units of bacteria per 1.55 sq inches followed by a mouse used on computers in Internet cafes, which had an average of 690 colony forming units.

　　"The reason that shopping cart handles had so much bacteria is because the area is larger than the others and people have more space to place their hands," Kwon Young-il, an official at the consumer body, said by telephone.

　　Hand straps on buses were next with 380 units, followed by bathroom doorknobs at 340. Rounding out the list were elevator buttons at 130 colony forming units and hand straps on subways at 86.

　　The report released this week said washing hands with soap removes almost all of the bacteria.
