The microorganisms is a group of hundreds of thousands of different kinds of species of bacteria, viruses or fungi. These cause of the disease is only about 20 percent of all known human – give experts. October 15 falls Global Handwashing Day.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 70 percent of food poisoning is caused by germs transmitted by dirty hands.

microbes or bacteria, viruses and fungi differ in everything, for construction, method of reproduction, the environment in which they live, but they have one thing in common – they are invisible to the naked eye. Light microscopes allow viewing of bacteria and fungi, and with the help of an electron microscope you can see viruses.
Most of the microbes is friendly to man, and even necessary for life, even many of them man can be used such as the production of cheese or yoghurt.
Dr Anna Majkowska Laboratory Sciences in Olsztyn highlights
U adult human in the intestinal contents from 1.5 to 2 kg of bacteria. That’s about 2000 species, to visualize it can be said that the number of bacteria is 10 times greater than the cells from which we are made. They live through us and hard work for us, protects us also against pathogenic organisms.
According to the experts the optimal time not washing hands should not be less than 30 seconds, Fig. pixabay.com
The optimum time to wash their hands , ie one in which manages to overcome pathogenic bacteria should not be shorter than 30 seconds, on average, people washing their hands only 5 seconds. Wash hands with soap and water should preferably warm and running. The water may be hot because there is a drying of the skin on the palms.
Wash should hands rather using a liquid soap, and not in the ankle, since soap bar left on the sink it is still wet, and it is propagated bacteria. Hands should be thoroughly dry. At home, when family members are usually the same microflora, textile towels can be used to regularly exchange. In contrast, public toilets rather we dry your hands with paper towels. It is not recommended to use the dryers. The hot air coming out of them can move all the way chicken and microorganisms in the room. These lands on our newly washed hands. In addition, the dryer can overheat your skin.

The skin of the hands of two layers of micro .
- The first is an appropriate physiological, which the man is permanently, this microflora multiplies in the folds of the skin, hair follicles, sebaceous glands and sweat glands, and it just gives us the proper functioning of the skin. It should not be removed. It is different when we come in extreme conditions other than average, eg. In hospitals when it is removed using lotions or preparations disinfectants.
- The second group is the microflora that we acquire through contact with environment, it is alien to us, if you will proliferate can cause infections. And that’s it for not washing hands before preparing food can lead to food poisoning.

As pointed out by microbiologist Marzena Lenkiewicz
Woman They have the conviction that it is they, unlike men care more about hygiene, because frequently wash their hands. However, according to researchers at the University of Colorado is on the hands of men is less microorganisms. The reason is that the skin reaction men hand is more acidic than women hand, the microorganisms and not like the acid environment. Nature has equipped men in a natural weapon, perhaps anticipating that they will be less to take care of hygiene.
Not only that, when compared to the hands of men of different professions is found that office workers or white-collar are microbiologically dirtier hands than workers doing physical work. This is due to a simple reason – the physical work is associated with dirt visible to the naked eye so working in these conditions, wash their hands often.

White-collar workers, and contrary to belief, it does not work in clean conditions. It is on pens, computer keyboards and computer mice teeming with bacteria. These can be up to 400 times more than on a toilet seat.

We are aware that just this board from time to time to wash while most of us do not even allow the thought that these offices need to be systematically wash – emphasized microbiologist Danuta Rostek .
Other studies concerning the presence of bacteria showed that only 17 percent of the microorganisms are present on both the right and left hand. Other microorganisms are found only on the right or on the left hand. This is due to the fact that other activities performed with the right hand and the other hand left.
According to the experts, our hand may be our personal signature. Fig. pixabay
According to the experts, our hand may be our personal signature. With its specific and characteristic only for us microflora is left on the surface as in the case of fingerprint our individual footprint.
