iCopper Fact 1
NgoFebruwari 2008, i-Arhente yoKhuseleko lweNdalo yase-US (EPA) yavuma ukubhaliswa kwee-alloys ze-275 ze-antimicrobial copper.Ngo-Epreli ka-2011, elo nani liye landa laya kutsho kuma-355. Oku kuvumela amabango ezempilo oluntu ukuba ubhedu, ubhedu kunye nobhedu ziyakwazi ukubulala iintsholongwane ezinobungozi, ezinokubulala.I-Copper yinto yokuqala eqinileyo yomgangatho wokufumana olu hlobo lokubhaliswa kwe-EPA, exhaswa luvavanyo olubanzi lwe-antimicrobial efficacy.*
* Ukubhaliswa kwe-US EPA kusekelwe kwiimvavanyo zaselabhoratri ezizimeleyo ezibonisa ukuba, xa zicocwa rhoqo, ubhedu, ubhedu kunye nobhedu zibulala ngaphezu kwe-99.9% yale bhaktheriya elandelayo kwiiyure ze-2 zokuvezwa: I-Methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(MRSA), iVancomycin-resistantEnterococcus faecalis(VRE),Staphylococcus aureus,Enterobacter aerogenes,Pseudomonas aeruginosa, kunye noE.coliO157:H7.
iCopper Fact 2
Amaziko oLawulo lweSifo kunye noThintelo (CDC) aqikelela ukuba usulelo olufunyenwe kwizibhedlele zase-US luchaphazela abantu abazizigidi ezibini minyaka le kwaye lukhokelela ekufeni kwabantu abamalunga ne-100,000 ngonyaka.Ukusetyenziswa kwee-alloys zethusi kwiindawo ezithintekayo rhoqo, njengesongezelelo kwi-CDC emiselweyo yokuhlamba izandla kunye ne-disinfection regimens, ineempembelelo ezide.
iCopper Fact 3
Ukusetyenziswa okunokwenzeka kwee-alloys ze-antimicrobial apho zinokunceda ukunciphisa inani leentsholongwane ezibangela isifo kwizibonelelo zempilo ziquka: umnyango kunye nempahla yefenitshala, iintsimbi zebhedi, iitreyi ezingaphezulu kwebhedi, i-intravenous (IV) stands, i-dispensers, i-faucets, i-sinks kunye nezikhululo zokusebenza. .
iCopper Fact 4
Izifundo zokuqala kwiYunivesithi yaseSouthampton, e-UK, kunye neemvavanyo ezenziwe emva koko kwi-ATS-Labs e-Eagan, eMinnesota, kwi-EPA ibonisa ukuba i-alloys ye-copper-base equkethe i-65% okanye ubhedu olungaphezulu lusebenza ngokuchasene:
- I-Methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(MRSA)
- Staphylococcus aureus
- I-Vancomycin-resistantEnterococcus faecalis(VRE)
- Enterobacter aerogenes
- Escherichia coliO157:H7
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Ezi bhaktiriya zithathwa njengezona zifo ziyingozi kakhulu ezikwaziyo ukubangela usulelo olunzima kwaye oluhlala lubulala.
Uphononongo lwe-EPA lubonisa ukuba kumphezulu we-alloy yobhedu, ngaphezulu kwe-99.9% ye-MRSA, kunye nezinye iibhaktheriya eziboniswe ngasentla, zibulawa kwiiyure ezimbini kwiqondo lokushisa.
iCopper Fact 5
I-MRSA “superbug” yibhaktiriya enentsholongwane ekwaziyo ukumelana ne-antibiotics ebanzi kwaye, ngenxa yoko, kunzima kakhulu ukuyinyanga.Ingumthombo oxhaphakileyo wosulelo ezibhedlele kwaye iya isanda ukufunyanwa eluntwini ngokunjalo.Ngokutsho kwe-CDC, i-MRSA inokubangela izifo ezinzulu, ezinokuthi zibeke ubomi esichengeni.
iCopper Fact 6
Ngokungafaniyo neengubo zokwaleka okanye ezinye izinto zonyango, ukusebenza kakuhle kwe-antibacterial yesinyithi sobhedu akuyi kuguga.Ziqinile kwaye ziyasebenza naxa zikrwela.Banikezela ngokhuseleko lwexesha elide;kanti, iiantimicrobial coatings ziethe-ethe, kwaye zinokuwohloka okanye ziphele emva kwexesha.
iCopper Fact 7
Ulingo lwezonyango oluxhaswa yiCongressally lwaqalwa kwizibhedlele ezithathu zase-US ngo-2007. Bavavanya ukusebenza kwe-alloys yobhedu ye-antimicrobial ekuthinteleni amazinga osulelo lwe-MRSA, i-vancomycin-resistant.Enterococci(VRE) kunyeAcinetobacter baumannii, yenkxalabo ethile ukususela ekuqaleni kweMfazwe yase-Iraq.Izifundo ezongezelelweyo zifuna ukufumanisa ukusebenza kobhedu kwezinye iintsholongwane ezinokubulala, kubandakanywaKlebsiella pneumophila,Legionella pneumophila,Rotavirus, umkhuhlane A,Aspergillus niger,Salmonella enterica,Campylobacter jejunikunye nabanye.
iCopper Fact 8
Inkqubo yesibini exhaswa ngemali yinkongolose iphanda amandla obhedu okuphelisa iintsholongwane ezisemoyeni kwindawo ye-HVAC (yokufudumeza, ukungena komoya kunye ne-air-conditioning).Kwizakhiwo zanamhlanje, kukho inkxalabo emandla malunga nomgangatho womoya wangaphakathi kunye nokuvezwa kwii-microorganisms ezinetyhefu.Oku kudale isidingo esinzima sokuphucula iimeko zococeko lweenkqubo ze-HVAC, ekukholelwa ukuba zizinto ezingaphezulu kwe-60% yazo zonke iimeko zokwakha izifo (umzekelo, iifins ze-aluminiyam kwiinkqubo ze-HVAC zichongiwe njengemithombo ye-microbial populations).
iCopper Fact 9
Kubantu abakhubazekileyo, ukuvezwa kwiintsholongwane ezinamandla ezivela kwiinkqubo ze-HVAC kunokukhokelela kusulelo oluqatha kwaye ngamanye amaxesha olubulalayo.Ukusetyenziswa kobhedu lwe-antimicrobial endaweni yezixhobo zebhayoloji-inert kwityhubhu yokutshintshiselana kobushushu, amaphiko, iipani zokuthontsiza zecondensate kunye nezihluzi zinokungqineka ziyindlela esebenzayo nengabizi kakhulu yokunceda ukulawula ukukhula kwebhaktheriya kunye nomngundo okhula kwindawo emnyama, efumileyo yeHVAC. iinkqubo.
iCopper Fact 10
Ityhubhu yobhedu inceda ekunqandeni ukuqhambuka kweSifo seLegionnaire, apho iintsholongwane zikhula kwaye zisasazeke kwityhubhu nezinye izinto ezikwiinkqubo zokupholisa umoya ezingenziwanga ngobhedu.Imiphezulu yobhedu ayinakukwazi ukukhulaLegionellakunye nezinye iibhaktheriya.
iCopper Fact 11
Kwisithili sase Bordeaux eFransi, inkulungwane ye-19 yesazinzulu saseFransi uMillardet waqaphela ukuba imidiliya egalelwe intlama yecopper sulfate kunye nekalika ukwenza imidiliya ingabi nomtsalane kubusela ibonakala ngathi ayinaso isifo sokungunda.Oku kuqatshelwa kukhokelele kunyango (olwaziwa ngokuba yiBordeaux Mixture) kwisifo sokungunda kwaye kwabangela ukuba kuqaliswe ukutshiza kwezityalo ezikhuselayo.Uvavanyo ngemixube yobhedu kwizifo ezahlukahlukeneyo zokungunda ngokukhawuleza lwatyhila ukuba izifo ezininzi zezityalo zinokuthintelwa ngobhedu oluncinane.Ukusukela ngoko, imichiza yokungunda yobhedu ibiyimfuneko kwihlabathi liphela.
iCopper Fact 12
Ngoxa wayesenza uphando eIndiya ngowama-2005, isazi ngebhayoloji eliNgesi uRob Reed waphawula ukuba abantu belali bagcina amanzi kwiinqanawa zobhedu.Xa ebabuza ukuba kutheni besebenzisa ubhedu, abahlali bale lali bathi lubakhusela kwizigulo ezibangelwa ngamanzi ezifana norhudo kunye nesisu segazi.I-Reed ivavanye ithiyori yabo phantsi kweemeko zaselabhoratri ngokuzisaE. coliiibhaktheriya zokusela amanzi kwimiphanda yobhedu.Kwiiyure ezingama-48, inani lebhaktheriya ephilayo emanzini liye lancitshiswa lafikelela kumanqanaba angabonakaliyo.
