Article Synopsis
- Hospitals face high risks of infections due to contamination, and this study investigates a new technology called advanced photohydrolysis for continuous disinfection.
- The research found that this technology significantly reduced harmful bacteria and fungi on surfaces, floors, and in the air, with up to 98% reduction in colony-forming units (CFUs) at two different hospital locations.
- The study highlights that ongoing use of this disinfection method could lead to fewer healthcare-associated infections, making it a promising solution for maintaining cleaner hospital environments.
