What is it and how does it work?

When you traditionally think of cleaning it consists of wet or dry methods. Those methods may work in some instances but not when it comes to c.diff or any other bacteria. When you are dry dusting you are basically spreading the dust around in the air to settle somewhere else. Not effective, right? When you are wet dusting you are probably using harsh chemicals and can still leave bacteria in cracks and crevices..but when you think of places like , healthcare facilities, lab or even a school you would want a more effective way to strip away the harmful germs and dust from the surfaces, that’s where you would want electrostatic spray.

Electrostatic spray cleaning , consists of spraying surfaces with an Electrostatically charged mist. The spray is a mixture of unique solution that is merged with air and is atomized by an electrode in the spray. The particles are then positively charged and able to adhere to surfaces and objects in a way you can’t get from dry or wet dusting. Positively charged particles can grip and coat any object or surface they are aimed at.

For cracks, crevices and hard to reach places, a technician only has to point at the area and spray ; coating every surface evenly, even if they only spray from one side. Then the sanitizing agents work to disinfect any surface. That is why electrostatic spray is the solution for getting rid of germs in contaminate ridden areas.

What is C. diff?

Clostridioides difficile [klos–TRID–e–OY-dees dif–uh–SEEL], formerly known as Clostridium difficile and often called C. difficile or C. diff, is a bacterium (germ) that causes diarrhea and colitis. Colitis is an inflammation of the colon.

Loss of appetite
Nausea

Complications

Common

Dehydration
Inflammation of the colon, known as
colitis

Rare

Serious intestinal condition, such as toxic megacolon
Sepsis, the body’s extreme response to an infection
Death

Causes and spread

C. diff germs spread from person to person in poop, but the bacteria are often found in the environment. Finding C. diff germs in the home is not unusual, even when no one in the home has been ill with C. diff infection.

When C. diff germs are outside the body, they become spores. These spores are an inactive form of the germ and have a protective coating allowing them to live for months or years on surfaces and in the soil. The germs become active again when you swallow these spores and they reach the intestines.

Healthy people don’t get infected often even if the spores reach their intestines. If your immune system is weak or you’ve recently taken antibiotics, you could get sick. Taking antibiotics can affect your microbiome, making you more susceptible to illnesses like C. diff infection.

The microbiome

The microbiome is the neighborhood of good and bad germs that live in or on your body—including your stomach and intestines, your mouth, your urinary tract, and on your skin. Some of those germs can cause illness, but others are very important in keeping you healthy.

Microbiomes and C. diff

A healthy microbiome helps protect you from infection (like C. diff), but antibiotics disrupt your microbiome. Antibiotics that fight bacterial infections by killing bad germs can also get rid of the good germs living in the digestive tract that protect the body against infections. The effect of antibiotics can last as long as several months. If you come in contact with C. diff germs during this time, you can get sick.
