How to Protect Yourself From MRSA with Hydroxyls

This is a very large group of different bacteria that can infect both animals and humans. With more than 2000 sub-species of salmonella able to infect humans, it’s easy to see why an understanding of this bacterium and how to prevent its spread is important. The bacteria can cause salmonellosis, which is associated with food poisoning. Typhoid fever is similar to the flu and only infects humans. This is caused by the sub-species Typhi.

This intestinal bacterium has different species and multiple sub-species. While most serovars, or sub-species, can infect both humans and animals, only S. Typhi and S. Paratyphii can only infect humans. There are some types of salmonella that are actually adapted to infect certain animals such as cattle or pigs.

Transmission and Production of Salmonella

Salmonella is easily transmitted through contaminated drinks and food. When a person consumes the bacteria, then he or she will become sick. This can happen when meat, seafood, or eggs are cooked improperly or when other foods such as vegetables and milk are not prepared correctly. Infected people who handle food can transmit salmonella to others. Salmonella can also spread through contact with surfaces infested with the bacterium or through feces.

Salmonella is found throughout the world in raw meat, feces, soil, water, insects, and surfaces in homes and factories. While some mild cases of salmonellosis may not be reported, around 40,000 cases are reported each year in the U.S. Only 400 cases of typhoid fever are reported each year in the U.S.Most of the salmonella species work by infecting the small intestines.It only takes 14 to 20 cells of bacteria for the host to become ill.

The bacteria can pass through the small intestines into the middle layer of this organ, which causes inflammation. Long-term salmonella infections can spread into the bloodstream and to other organs. This has prompted many scientists and doctors to wonder how to kill salmonella.

Unfortunately, salmonellosis doesn’t have a vaccine but typhoid fever does and it is commonly given to people traveling to areas with frequent outbreaks. These vaccines, while useful, are not perfect and travelers can still get sick by eating questionable food or drink. Antibiotics are given to people who have salmonellosis or typhoid fever. While there is no immediate way for people to feel better, electrolytes and fluids administered intravenously can help reduce the dehydration.

Effects can occur up to three days after being exposed and include fever, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, and headaches. Without treatment, salmonellosis will last up to a week. Longer durations will lead to dehydration and will give the infection time to spread to the bloodstream. Typhoid fever is characterized by weakness, constipation, fever, a rash, and muscle aches and can last up to a month, ending in death for some people.

Precautionary Measures to Take Around Salmonella

People always want to know how to eradicate salmonella and while there is no real way to get rid of it, there are certain measures to take:



Clean: Hands and Surfaces

  • Wash hands with soap and warm water before and after handling food
  • Wash all kitchen surfaces with warm soapy water
  • Cloth towels used in the kitchen need to be washed on hot
  • Consider using paper towels that can be thrown away

Separate: Be Aware of Cross-Contamination

  • Separate raw meat from other foods
  • Use separate cutting boards
  • Never place cooked meat near raw meat

Cook: Make Sure That Food Is Safe

  • Use a food thermometer to make sure that food is cooked to the correct temperature
  • Bring leftovers such as gravy and soup to a boil when reheating
  • Reheat all leftovers to high-enough temperatures

Chill: Know How to Cool Food Properly

  • Refrigerate leftovers promptly
  • Make sure that the refrigerator is cold enough by using a thermometer to monitor the temperature
  • Marinate foods in the refrigerator
  • Split leftovers into smaller containers so that they can cool faster
  • Thaw food in the refrigerator, not at room temperature on the counter

While salmonella removal can seem impossible, following these health and safety guidelines will reduce the chance of you getting sick. Consider investing in a Hydroxyl generator from http://www.odoroxair.com to create and release Hydroxyls in the air. They will kill and remove viruses and bacteria from the air and from surfaces.

The Haddonfield Public schools have purchased cleaning supplies and
materials from Bio-Shine for several years. Our contact, Mr Barry Bard, has
served our district well over this time and has provided us with an overwhelming base of knowledge to go along with the supplies that we have purchased. From
resurfacing of floors to indoor air quality, we have been pleased with the product line that Bio-shine has provided.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have moved forward with the purchase of Odorox Hydroxyl Generators for our nurses Suites and Athletic trainer's offices in our Schools. Barry introduced me to the Odorox Hydroxyl Generators as a tool to combat odors and to assist with Indoor air quality issues as a result of leaks and mold restoration projects. We view these machines as an essential tool in fighting the Current pandemic as well as a permanent fixture moving forward.

Dear Odorox Air Technologies,

I would like to thank you for introducing our hotel to your green technology for odor elimination. Traditionally I am very skeptical and not impressed easily when it comes to new technologies that claim to do so many wonderful things. Well, I can tell you that the job your Odorox machines have done removing odor on our smoking floor/hallways, guest rooms, ballrooms, and common areas has made me one of your strongest supporters. We set your machines up in a desired area and go about the rest of our daily duties. When we return a short time later the space smells fresh and revitalized and your Odorox machine is ready for its next challenge.

As the Director of Housekeeping at a very busy Hilton in Parsippany New Jersey I am regularly confronted with various odor challenges. Just recently we started refinishing our bathtubs in all of our guest rooms. We know from past experience that this process can create a strong chemical small that can make our guests and staff uncomfortable. Equipped with your machine I am happy to report these nuisance odors are things of the past.

Keeping our property smelling great is a key component to keeping our customers satisfied with the Hilton experience. I would like to thank Odorox for making my job just a little bit easier.

Thanks,

Lilly Sirkin
