Daylight exposure modulates bacterial communities associated with household dust
Ashkaan K. Fahimipour,Erica M. Hartmann,Erica M. Hartmann,Andrew Siemens,Jeff Kline,David A. Levin,Hannah Wilson,Clarisse M. Betancourt-Román,G. Z. Brown,Mark Fretz,Dale Northcutt,Kyla N. Siemens,Curtis Huttenhower,Jessica L. Green,Jessica L. Green,Kevin Van Den Wymelenberg +15 more
TL;DR: The authors' experimental and simulation-based results indicate that dust contains living bacterial taxa that can be inactivated following changes in local abiotic conditions and suggest that the bactericidal potential of ordinary window-filtered sunlight may be similar to ultraviolet wavelengths across dosages that are relevant to real buildings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cleanliness in context: reconciling hygiene with a modern microbial perspective
Roo Vandegrift,Ashley C. Bateman,Kyla N. Siemens,May Nguyen,Hannah Wilson,Jessica L. Green,Kevin Van Den Wymelenberg,Roxana J. Hickey +7 more
TL;DR: The explicit definition of hygiene is suggested as those actions and practices that reduce the spread or transmission of pathogenic microorganisms, and thus reduce the incidence of disease.

TL;DR: A review of the literature related to hand drying as an aspect of hand hygienic practice can be found in this paper, where the authors suggest the explicit definition of hygiene as those actions and practices that reduce the spread or transmission of pathogenic microorganisms, and thus reduce the incidence of disease.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors showed associations between dietary habits, adenoma formation and the mucosal microbiome, which indicated that ongoing research into diet modification may help reduce adenomas formation and subsequently the development of CRC.
