Unit 4: Choosing an Antimicrobial Technique You be the expert: Imagine you are a teaching a class on controlling microbial growth in the environment. To test your students, you will present them with a scenario including a site and some probable microbes present. They must design a strategy to eliminate harmful microbes from the area. In this discussion, each student (at a minimum) should present a scenario for analysis by his or her classmates, propose an answer to another classmate's scenario, and respond to all classmates who attempt to address the scenario.

Explanation / Answer

Scenario: Elevator buttons in residential building contaminated with Klebsiella, Staphylococcus, and Enterobacter species.

Strategy: Since the site is a non-living object, it is treated by using a disinfectant. Disinfectant named 'Professional Lysol' can be sprayed on the contaminated site and left for two minutes to kill the infectious microbes. After two minutes, the site can be wiped off using clean cloth and gloves. The active antimicrobial agent found in the Lysol are Alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium saccharinate and Ethanol.
