Monday I went to the lab to review the results of the different cleaners I tested on a table top last Friday. The following were used as controls: a non-cleaned portion, dust off with dry paper towel, wiped with tap water and distilled water. The following cleaners were used to test for their effectiveness: Hydrogen Peroxide, 70% isopropyl alcohol, Witch Hazel, Anti-bacteria Windex, Wet Ones, Lysol wipes, Vinegar, At Home cleaner. In order to measure their effectiveness each colony on each contact plate were analyzed. According to my results the most effective cleaner was a tie between the Lysol wipes and the hydrogen peroxide
This is a picture of the contact plate that was sampled on the unclean portion of the table.
