- The Healthy Facilities Institute (HFI) is pleased to officially support the Cleaning Industry Research Institute International (CIRI) Symposium, “Cleaning & Disinfection: The Science, Practice & Controversy”.
- How can cleanroom cleaning procedures and technologies be adapted for attaining low airborne and surface bacterial levels in home, school, hospital, and industrial spaces?
- The Cleaning Industry Research Institute International (CIRI) is pleased to announce its call for topics, proposals and papers to be considered for its science and technology symposium, “Cleaning Effectiveness and the Science of Antimicrobials & Disinfectants.”
- ICM is defined as an open-source protocol in which best practices are evaluated by scientific measurement of cleaning outcomes.
- Without a long-term commitment to comprehensive environmental management, not even the best high performance school can hope to stay high performing for very long.
- Process Cleaning for Healthy Schools™ (PCHS™) optimizes efficiency, cleanliness, ease-of-deployment, and health factors through a carefully designed and documented system tailored for K-12 school districts.
- Certified technicians may use particle counters to help ensure your air is clean after mold cleanup.
- Pathogenic microorganisms are transmitted in many ways in hospitals. One important consideration is the role that the environment plays in pathogen transmission, specifically leading to airborne and waterborne infections.
- Asthma is a big problem in schools, and reducing it is a way for cleaning product distributors to make a big difference.
- If you have time to quickly swipe your pager or cell phone three times, that would be your best bet to get rid of most of the bacteria. And a simple tissue moistened with saline would do the trick. But if you only have time for a single swipe of a 'dirty' phone – you'd be better off reaching for a disinfectant wipe.
- The Vessel Sanitation Program (VSP) at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) assists the cruise ship industry to prevent and control the introduction, transmission, and spread of gastrointestinal (GI) illnesses on cruise ships.
- "Log reduction" is a mathematical term (as is "log increase") used to show the relative number of live microbes eliminated from a surface by disinfecting or cleaning.
- Integrated Cleaning and Measurement (ICM) is an open source unified-systems approach to institutional and industrial cleaning in which “best practices” are defined by scientific measurement of cleaning outcomes.
- The swabs used for sampling surfaces for microbial contamination are examples of devices that are simple in design and construction, but are difficult to use without discipline and training. This article discusses why this is so.
- Integrated Cleaning and Measurement (ICM) is changing the perception of the cleaning industry and generating interest from individuals who want to pursue cleaning as a career. By employing the newest cleaning and measurement technologies and encouraging innovation with the larger goal of protecting public health, ICM is attracting students and new groups of professionals to the industry.
